Flood Plain Map

On March 16, 2015, FEMA adopted new Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs) for Bucks County. These maps are used to delineate areas prone to flooding. In addition to being used for building and construction requirements, FIRMs are used by mortgage companies to determine whether or not flood insurance is required. Prior to March 16, 2015, the FEMA FIRMs in effect were adopted in 1999.
