What is a Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM)?

When will the new Flood Insurance Rate Maps become effective?
The new FIRMs are scheduled to become effective JUNE 16, 2011. Any modifications to the scheduled effective date will be posted on the Pima County Regional Flood Control District's (District) website www.rfcd.pima.gov/dfirm.

Where an I go to view the new maps?

If you do not have access to high speed internet you may access the website from computers at any branch of the Pima County Public Library.
