Abstract: The Residential Basement Floodproofing Certification is completed by an engineer or architect and certifies that the basement floodproofing meets the minimum floodproofing specifications of FEMA. This certification is for residential structures located in non-coastal Special Flood Hazard Areas in communities that have received an exception to the requirement that structures be built at or above the Base Flood Elevation (BFE). Residential structures with certification showing the building is flood proofed to at least 1 foot above the BFE are eligible for lower rates on flood insurance.

Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: Yes

Burden Reduction Due to: Miscellaneous Actions

Short Statement: The previous burden hours for FEMA Form 086-0-24 were 488 hours. The current estimated Annual hour Burden is 325 hours, resulting in a decrease of 163 hours. The adjustment in burden hours is due to a decrease in the number of FEMA Forms 086-0-24 submitted due to changes in how Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHA) are determined – the modernization of the mapping process has allowed for much more precise determinations, which reduces that possibility that non flood areas receive a SFHA designation.
