ALLEGANY COUNTY FLOOD MAPS

​

New Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) flood maps became effective on April 3, 2020, for Allegany County, Maryland.  Residents are encouraged to examine the maps online at https://msc.fema.gov/portal/home, to determine if their property is in a low to moderate, or high-risk flood zone. 

 

By understanding flood risks, individuals can decide which insurance option is best for their situation.  Community leaders can use these maps to make informed decisions about building standards and development that will make the community more resilient and lessen the impacts of a flooding event
