Instructions to complete Worksheet B: Appropriate Mitigation Measures 
1. List the mitigation measures from the "Appropriate Miigation Measures" row from Worksheet A, Technical Considerations Scorecard (all checked boxes in 
last row of Worksheet A). 
2. Using information from Chapters 4 through 10 of FEMA 551, Selecting Appropriate Mitigation Measures for Floodprone Structures, rank each measure as 
High, Moderate, or Low. See "Tips to Rank Mitigation Measures" on next page for additional information. 
3. Check the appropriate box (High, Moderate or Low) under each of the decision factors. 
4. Total the points for each mitigation measure. The LOWEST total points indicates the most appropriate mitigation measure(s). 
5. Include notes describing how the determination was made for a particular ranking. 
* NOTE: Since Technical Considerations and Relative Costs are more significant in selecting appropriate mitigation measures(s), they are weighted higher than 
Human Intervention and Annual Maintenance.

Tips to Rank Mitigation Measures (Worksheet B cont.) 
Technical Considerations 
Use the responses in Worksheet A, Technical Considerations Scorecard, to determine a ranking of High, Moderate or Low for each 
mitigation measure. 
If there are no grayed out boxes checked for a mitigation measure, the technical consideration ranking is Low. 
If there are 1 or 2 grayed out boxes checked for a mitigation measure, the technical considerations score is Moderate. 
If there are3 or more grayed out boxes checked for a mitigation measure, the technical consideration score is High. 
List any considerations in the implementation process that could be a limiting factor or clear constsraint in the Notes section. 
Relative Costs 
Rank each of the mitigation measures based on the estimated cost to address the flood risk and the likelihood of cost-effectiveness. 
Chapters 4 through 10 include information to rank each mitigation measure measure based on FEMA 312, Homeowner's Guide to 
Retrofitting: Six Ways to Protect Your House From Flooding, and FEMA 259, Engineering Principles and Practices of Retrofitting 
Floodprone Residential Structures. Low cost indicates Low ranking and high cost indicates High ranking. 
Need for Human Intervention 
This reflects the need for human intervention to operate the mitigation measure and the warning time to conduct the required activity. 
Generally, the more "passive" the system (i.e., requiring the least human interaction), the more reliable the system will be over time, thereby 
resulting in a Low ranking. Mitigation measures that require human intervention, such as barriers and dry floodproofing, receive a High 
ranking. 
Need for Annual Maintenance 
This reflects the level of effort of annual maintenance required by each mitigation measure. Similar to human intervention, less annual 
maintenance results in a Low ranking. 
NOTE: If two or more mitigation measures tie with the lowest score, other decision factors should be considered in determining the most 
appropriate mitigation measure(s). These considerations include, but are not limitrd to aestheteics; access to site; housing of occupants 
during the project; compliance with all applicable codes, ordinances, and regulations; historic preservation concerns; and availability of 
contractors. 
The other decision factors should be listed in the Comments section of Worksheet C.

2007 INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING THE 
NFIP REPETITIVE LOSS (RL) UPDATE AW-501 WORKSHEET 
These instructions explain to communities participating in the National Flood Insurance Program’s (NFIP) 
Community Rating System (CRS) how to make updates on the NFIP Repetitive Loss (RL) Update 
AW-501 Worksheet. If you have any questions on how to apply these instructions or any other repetitive 
loss issues, we suggest contacting either the person responsible for NFIP Repetitive Loss Updates 
identified below or your assigned ISO/CRS Specialist. 
Please read Section 501 in the 2006 CRS Coordinators Manual before completing these worksheets. All 
communities applying to and participating in the CRS with one or more repetitive loss properties will 
receive the NFIP Repetitive Loss Update Worksheet. We recognize there are many reasons why the 
property address information needs to be corrected on the community repetitive loss list. The RL Update 
Worksheet was developed to update any known errors on the list while making this process as easy and 
simple to use as possible. 
PROCEDURES 
It is the responsibility of all CRS communities with at least one repetitive loss property to review and 
update the worksheets if applicable. Please review the properties listed under “Current Property 
Address” and select one or more of the seven update choices provided in the REQUESTED UPDATES 
section. All requested updates should be clearly legible. You should keep a photocopy of the original 
document for your records. Please submit only those RL Update Worksheets you have updated and 
attach the transmittal sheet. If you are submitting a new CRS application, modification, or will be 
undergoing a cycle application in 2007, the updated worksheets should be included in the documentation 
materials provided to your ISO/CRS Specialist. If you are providing voluntary updates, please send the 
updated worksheets and all necessary supporting documentation to the following NFIP Repetitive Loss 
Update address as soon as possible, but no later than December 1, 2007: 
NFIP Repetitive Loss Updates, c/o Ms. Sherry Harper, AICP, CFM; Insurance Services Office, Inc.; 
2382 Susan Drive, Crestview, FL 32536. You may also provide the updated worksheet (AW-501) 
and any required supporting documentation electronically by emailing the documents to 
sharper@iso.com or send them by FAX to 201-748-1869 
“Repetitive Loss Number” -- This number is assigned by the RL database computer and is primarily 
used for FEMA internal program tracking. The RL number may also be referred to as a property locator 
number and will likely be referred to in correspondence or discussions concerning submitted updates. 
“Local Property Identifier” -- This optional information such as Tax Assessor’s number, Lot & Block, 
etc., is provided by the community. Communities have requested the inclusion of this local information in 
FEMA databases. 
“Current Property Address” -- This address will always be the most recent address known for a 
property. If an address update was submitted previously and processed, it will be shown in this section. 
“Previous Property Address” -- This is the second most recent address for a repetitive loss property. 
There is no need to modify this address field. It is shown here and on subsequent listings only for 
informational and comparison purposes. So that you can see the current or revised address and 
community ID number versus the previous address and community ID number. If necessary, the previous 
address may help you locate the structure. 
 - 2 - 
“Last Claimant” --The data shown here is the name of the insured that reported the latest claim for the 
property, and may or may not be the current owner. This data is provided for informational purposes only 
in an effort to help you locate the property, if necessary. This data cannot be updated. If this is the only 
discrepancy you detect or the only entry in need of update, there is no need to submit the AW-501 
worksheet for processing. 
“Insured” -- If FEMA records indicate this property is currently insured under the NFIP, a “YES” will be 
shown in this field and the current name associated with the related Policy will be shown in the Named 
Insured section. Once again, the current insured name is only for informational purposes and is not 
intended for you to update. If however you feel that a property is misidentified as uninsured when in fact it 
is insured, you may wish to call that to our attention. Provide as much information as possible in the 
additional comments section on the current insured’s name and/or possible alternate address or 
community identification number that the existing policy may be written under. 
“Dates of Losses” -- The dates are shown as year/month/day. For example, January 14, 2005, would be 
shown 20050114. If there are indications that the loss history reported for the property may be 
inaccurate, please call this to our attention. For missing claims or a claims history that may include more 
than one separately insured building, provide (in the Comments section of the form or as a separate 
document) all pertinent information such as date of missing claim, name of additional claimant, address of 
missing claim or information on the number of buildings on the site or address that brings in to question 
the claim record validity. 
SELECTING AND DOCUMENTING UPDATES 
REQUESTED UPDATES 
* INFORMATION PROVIDED NOT SUFFICIENT TO IDENTIFY PROPERTY: Before selecting this 
update it is expected that the address information provided will have been thoroughly researched 
including the claimant name and/or the current insured name. The claimant name provided is associated 
with the last reported loss for the property. It may or may not be the current property owner or may have 
been a past renter or occupant of the property. Possible sources of additional information that may help 
you identify the current property address are local tax records for the years of the claims, current and prior 
phone books, utility records, and the U.S. Postal Service. In addition, name search engines on the 
Internet may be useful in locating a current phone number or address for the name provided. You can 
also talk to long time citizens of your community to see if they can assist you in identifying the correct 
address of the flooded property. 
Please describe the investigative steps you took to locate the property in the Comments section of the 
worksheet. AW-501s for properties previously updated using this selection are annotated to reflect the 
update by displaying in the additional comments section “Previously updated - this property is 
no longer considered a RL property. Updated as - Unable to locate.” 
Previous versions of the AW-501 did not contain claimant or insured name information. If you were 
previously unable to locate the property, and are now seeing the name of the last claimant or current 
insured for the first time, please take the time to try to locate the property again using the newly provided 
information. 
* COSMETIC CHANGES REQUIRED TO THE ADDRESS: Use this area to correct misspellings, street 
suffixes, to provide newly established address information, or to include “Local Property Identifier” 
information that meets your needs. To better help you locate these addresses; we have provided the 
policyholder name associated with the last reported claim. The last claimant name associated with the 
insured location will change automatically if a future claim is paid to a new insured. In addition, if 
currently insured the name associated with the most recent policy is also provided. Please do not submit 
forms for which the only update is the spelling or accuracy of the claimant or insured name provided. 
Since this is an historical record, we are unable to make these types of updates. The names will be 
updated automatically, in the event of any future reported claims or changes of the named insured. 
 - 3 - 
* PROPERTY NOT IN OUR COMMUNITY OR JURISDICTION: If in using the information provided, you 
have positively identified the RL Property, and have determined that the building is not located in the 
community to which it is currently assigned, please provide the correct community name and NFIP 
Community ID number in the spaces provided. It is critical that the correct community name including 
county and the NFIP community ID number be provided. Without this information, the property will 
remain assigned to the community currently identified on the listing of RL Properties. If necessary, to 
assist the newly assigned community in locating the building, please make any known cosmetic changes 
required to the address (see above) as well. 
* FLOOD PROTECTION PROVIDED: Select this update only if some type of structural intervention has 
occurred to either the building, property or the source of flooding that would provide protection to the 
building from those types of flooding events that have occurred in the past. You also must provide the 
Mitigation Action Codes (a-f) and the Mitigation Funding Codes (j-y) that best describes the mitigation 
project. These codes are included in a separate file on the CD. Please include all available 
documentation with the RL Update Worksheet (AW-501) that supports the mitigation action taken along 
with any evidence available that indicates the mitigation was effective. It will also be necessary to provide 
a copy of a recent Elevation Certificate if the building was retrofitted or replaced. If the property was 
previously updated in this manner and the Mitigation Codes are not shown or are incorrect, you 
must provide the appropriate codes. This will avoid the update from being removed in the future. 
* NO BUILDING ON PROPERTY: Select this update only if the building in question can be positively 
identified as the previously flooded building and documentation is available to support that as a result of 
acquisition, relocation or demolition, an insurable building no longer exists at this location. You also must 
provide the Mitigation Action Codes (g-i) and Mitigation Funding Codes (j-y) that best describe the 
mitigation project. These codes are included in a separate file on the CD. Please include all available 
documentation with the RL Update Worksheet (AW-501) that supports the mitigation action taken. If the 
property was previously updated in this manner as a result of a non FEMA funded mitigation action and 
has since been replaced by a new elevated or floodproofed building, it will be necessary to select the 
FLOOD PROTECTION PROVIDED update described above and provide the new applicable Mitigation 
Action and Funding Codes. Also, if the property was previously updated in this manner and the 
Mitigation Codes are not shown or are incorrect, you must provide the appropriate codes. This 
will avoid the update from being removed in the future. 
Please note that if the mitigation action was primarily federally funded, it probably did not cover 
the entire cost of mitigation; consequently, a secondary funding code is required. 
FLOOD PROTECTION PROVIDED and NO BUILDING ON PROPERTY are two categories that generally 
describe why a property is no longer subject to the types of events that caused the original flooding. If 
either of these two updates are selected and properly documented, future worksheets will show the 
following statement in the additional comments section: “PREVIOUSLY UPDATED – THIS PROPERTY 
IS NO LONGER CONSIDERED A RL PROPERTY,” and a bold “X” will be placed adjacent to the 
appropriate update. However, since the property did historically suffer the loss, the property will remain 
on the master repetitive loss list (even though the problem has been reported as corrected). If another 
claim is reported, the update will automatically be removed and the property will once again be 
considered a repetitive loss property. 
* DUPLICATE LISTING WITH RL NUMBER ______________________: If you identify two or more 
(AW-501) worksheets with separate address listings that are for the same building, use this update to 
identify all identical listings so they can be combined. On each worksheet that is a duplicate property, list 
all other RL or property locator numbers that are a duplicate to that property. To ensure the proper 
processing of this type of update, please provide all duplicate listing worksheets, for each location, 
together. Also, please identify the appropriate address to use for the creation of the new listing. 
Remember, if any of the loss dates for the two or more properties are the same, it is not likely that they 
are a true duplicate listing. It is more likely that there is more than one insurable building on the site that 
has suffered repetitive claims. Please investigate the possibility of multiple buildings before requesting 
this update. 
 - 4 - 
* HISTORIC BUILDING: Choose this update if the property identified on the worksheet has either already 
been designated as a “Historical Building” on either a State or National Historic Registry or is eligible for 
inclusion in a registry. Please provide any appropriate documentation available to support this update. 
* COMMENTS SECTION: Use this area to provide comments on any of the above updates or to explain 
a situation that does not fit into one of the above update fields. 
DOCUMENTATION REQUIREMENTS 
Several of the potential updates require that documentation be provided to support the claim of mitigation 
or to confirm the address or location of the subject building. The following provides additional clarification 
on the various types of mitigation actions and the type of documentation that would likely be acceptable in 
verifying and approving the requested update. 
ELEVATION OR DEMOLITION AND REBUILDING – The most appropriate documentation for this type 
of mitigation is an accurately completed FEMA Elevation Certificate (EC) based on finished construction 
showing that either the lowest floor or the bottom of lowest horizontal structural member, if applicable and 
accompanying machinery is at or above the 100 year base flood elevation. In addition if applicable, the 
EC must show that the area below the next higher floor is constructed in a manner consistent with 
Federal and local floodplain regulations pertaining to the number and size of openings allowing the entry 
and exit of flood waters. 
ACQUISITION/DEMOLITION – Appropriate documentation for this type of mitigation action would consist 
of a demolition permit issued by the community, local property tax records showing no improvements on 
the lot, photos of the vacated site and/or written statements from the community official, (on community 
letterhead), explaining the circumstances under which the property was cleared. A certified deed that 
shows the transfer of ownership of the property to the community and the open space use requirements 
provided for under all FEMA grant programs would also be acceptable. 
ACQUISITION/RELOCATION – Documentation, similar to that specified above for acquisition/demolition, 
is required to verify the removal of the structure. A building permit and/or FEMA EC for the new structure 
showing that it was constructed either outside the special flood hazard area (SFHA) or, in accordance 
with Federal and local floodplain regulations would also be necessary. 
FLOODPROOFING – This mitigation measure is usually reserved for non-residential structures. 
Verification would consist of an accurately completed FEMA Floodproofing Certificate showing the 
building as floodproofed to the base flood elevation. However, any projects that require human 
intervention will be closely reviewed. In communities approved for residential basement floodproofing, an 
accurately completed FEMA Residential Basement Floodproofing Certificate is required for new 
construction in the SFHA. 
DRAINAGE IMPROVEMENTS – A thorough description of the improvements and their intended effect is 
required. The descriptions should include what was done and when, why the action taken was chosen, 
the previous and new level of protection and any evidence of the effectiveness of the project such as an 
analysis of how the system performed during a recent weather event. Letters from the community official 
in charge of the project that answers these questions and provides examples of the scope and nature of 
the project such as plans would help to support the approval of this flood protection action. In some 
cases a Letter of Map Revision (LOMR) based on the project is requested of and prepared by FEMA. In 
those instances providing a copy of the LOMR clearly showing the subject property in the amended area 
and out of the SFHA would suffice for documentation of this mitigation action. 
The above actions represent mitigation actions that fully protect a structure from flooding up to and 
including the base flood elevation. Several repetitive loss properties are flooded simply as a result of 
more frequent, less severe events. For mitigation actions between the 25-year and 99-year protection 
levels, a “conditional” partial protection level will be assigned only with supporting data as certified by a 
design professional and or a community official that includes sufficient engineering data to demonstrate 
that at least 25-year protection has been provided. However, should another loss occur, we reserve the 
right to reevaluate the “conditional” approval and the property may be placed back into repetitive loss 
status. Property will be “conditionally” mitigated if evidence is supplied that the project meets the flood 
 - 5 - 
protection level of the 25-year through 99-year recurrence events and the specific property is cited as 
being protected by the project. Examples of allowable protection projects include channelizations, culvert 
enlargements, retention/detention ponds etc. 
The typical documentation required would consist of letters from the community; copies of the previous 
and revised Flood Insurance Reference Maps (FIRM) with property location shown indicating that the 
property was in the SFHA and is now removed; an engineering analysis provided by the community that 
demonstrates the level of protection provided; receipts from contractors; copies of FMA or HMGP 
documentation, if available for individual properties protected by a project. 
LEGAL DESCRIPTIONS – Several property records in the RL database are known only by a “legal 
description.” If the documentation submitted for the mitigation project, as described above, now 
references a mailing or “group one” address as provided by the U.S. Postal Service, documentation to 
support that the “group one” address and the legal description listed currently are one and the same, is 
required. Tax records showing both a legal description and a local mailing address would suffice for 
documentation of this criterion. 
The above documentation stipulations represent those documents that should be available after a 
properly executed mitigation project is closed out. On occasion circumstances dictate otherwise. 
Each request for update will be evaluated on its individual merits and will be approved or denied 
based on sound engineering principles, the support of the documentation provided, and the claim 
history of the property.
