Getting Knapp Associates involved early in a project proposed for location in a SFHA is an excellent decision. After reviewing your proposed project, we can closely correlate your goals and desires with federal and municipal floodplain management and/or other requirements. In addition, there are certain floodplain performance standards not included in municipal regulations which may affect project acceptability and compliance.

As your designated agent, we can submit your proposal and permit applications to the required municipal, state and federal review agencies and attend review sessions to answer questions. Accordingly, we can insure a complete understanding of your project by the various review agencies and accurately relay their concerns about your project to you. We can also attend public hearings on your behalf to answer project related questions presented by the general public.

Through frequent inspections, we can insure your project is compliant with all mandated permit conditions and meets municipal requirements for the issuance of a floodplain Certificate of Compliance.

If your project qualifies for or requires a FEMA approved Letter of Map Change, we can coordinate all necessary applications and required submissions to obtain.
