What are A Zones characterized by?

  1. Except coastal V zones, The Special Flood Hazard Area shown on a community's Flood Insurance Rate Map

  2. SFHA where no base flood elevation is provided

  3. Numbered A Zones showing base flood elevation in relation to NGVD

  4. SFHA where base flood elevations are provided

The correct answer is: Except coastal V zones, The Special Flood Hazard Area shown on a community's Flood Insurance Rate Map

A Zones are characterized by the Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) shown on a community's Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM). A Zones do not include coastal V zones, which have different characteristics. Zones B and C are both numbered and show base flood elevations, but A Zones are designated by letters. Therefore, options B and C are incorrect. Option D is partially correct, as it mentions a SFHA, but does not specify that it is shown on a community's FIRM, making it an incomplete answer.
