If you are in a zone that FEMA does not consider a threat flood insurance is really pretty cheap. Yes, but if you do live in an area prone to natural disasters then that insurance is a killer, such as earthquake insurance in California, insurance companies have to offer it by law, but it can cost as much as your regular insurance or more depending on fault proximity.

Yup it is a freebie. I was going to just put it on my web site but they say they don't like that. I don't want another nasty gram. (although I suppose if I put it in the private area I could slip through a loophole in the ULA)

Greg: I printed that & have it at the twp office for handout to anyone. I also handed quite a few copies out in the field. My Twp is on the fortunate side as far as damages. Two apt complexes got hit real hard. 46 units at one w/water damages interior, and seven bldgs (about 110+/- apts in the other. Two buildings (30 units) have new services inspected and awaiting the utility meters this afternoon. (I just got back from there)
As to flood insurance, yes I have it on my hpme, it's not mandatory, but I still have it for a tad under $1850 a year. Hope I never need it.

It's helpful Greg
but in an effort to make it even easier for all the FF's and potential rural residential reconnects i've simply asked to determine if the water immersed the panel or not.
a service can be heaed back up, and isolated to either dedicated circuits, and/or a GFI under the panel for temp usage
