FEMA has 19 FIRM panels covering Presque Isle County, the newest effective December 2022; coastal V zones, where waves add to the flood, are mapped along its shore.
The official panel and any Letter of Map Amendment are at FEMA's Map Service Center. An elevation certificate for a Presque Isle house comes from a licensed surveyor and is often on file with the county or city building office.
