What is a Conditional Letter of Map Amendment (CLOMA)?

  1. A final amendment to floodplain maps

  2. A preliminary approval for a future map amendment

  3. A denial of a map revision request

  4. A confirmation of flood zone designation

The correct answer is: A preliminary approval for a future map amendment

A CLOMA (Conditional Letter of Map Amendment) is not a finalized amendment to floodplain maps (A) as it is only a preliminary approval for a future map amendment. It is also not a denial of a map revision request (C) as it is a conditional approval. Additionally, it is not a confirmation of flood zone designation (D) as it is only a preliminary approval and not a final determination. The correct answer is B because a CLOMA is a preliminary approval for a future map amendment, meaning that it is not a final determination but rather an initial approval that is subject to further review.
