National Flood Insurance Program

Several residents have asked me about flood insurance stating that they were told they could not get flood insurance. That is incorrect.  I contacted SEMA and they gave me the following information to share with you:

“Because the City of Moscow Mills participates in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) everyone inside the City limits of Moscow Mills can buy flood insurance.  No matter what flood zones you are in (low, moderate or high-risk zones).  To find a flood insurance agent in your area go to www.floodsmart.gov .  Select the tab of “Buying a policy”, then “find an insurance provider”.  Then choose Mo. and a list of insurance providers with contact information will be shown.  Or call SEMA at 573-526-9100 (main number) and ask for anyone in the Floodplain Section as they can help you also.”   FEMA says anywhere it rains it can flood, get a quote, it doesn’t cost to get a quote.

Have a great day Moscow Mills!
