Since Katrina, FEMA has been updating its flood maps under an initiative called "The Flood Map Modernization Program".
The FEMA website say "Flood Map Modernization (Map Mod) is a multiyear Presidential initiative supported by Congress that is directed at improving and updating the Nation’s flood hazard identification maps. These flood maps have been produced and used for 35 years under the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP), originally for the identification and depiction of flood hazard areas in communities and for setting flood insurance rates."
You can see more info on this at the following url: "http://www.fema.gov/plan/prevent/fhm/mm_mca.shtm"
So, this is not a case of lenders just "waking up". My gripe is that FEMA classified every pice of property bodering on the lake as being in the Special Flood Hazard Area without notifying property owners and giving them a chance to appeal the ruling before it was implemented.
