When floodplains are altered, the ability of floodplains to absorb floodwaters and reduce risk from a flood is diminished.

Development within a floodplain can make flooding and flood damage more severe and extensive.

About This Directory

This directory is maintained by the Orleans County Department of Planning and Development as a public resource for property owners, residents, developers, insurance agents, and floodplain administrators seeking floodplain information across Orleans County's towns and villages. Floodplain maps shown here are drawn from FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs) and are provided for general reference; official flood hazard determinations should be verified through the FEMA Flood Map Service Center. Local floodplain management regulations are subject to amendment, and the linked sources may not always reflect the most recent changes. Floodplain regulations govern where and how construction, substantial improvement, and other development may occur in areas of special flood hazard. If you have questions about a specific property, a permit requirement, or a proposed project, contact the municipal Floodplain Administrator directly. This site is for general informational purposes only and does not constitute a flood hazard determination, an elevation certificate, or legal advice.
