Flood Zone Information

 Our mission is to provide Cochise County citizens with education on floodplains, building requirements, and information about Flood Insurance Programs in order to reduce flood damage and maintain the environmental benefits provided by floodplains.

The Flood Control District of Cochise County is charged with regulating the use of land in accordance with these regulations and those specified in the Cochise County Floodplain Regulations, originally adopted December 1984 and revised several times since then.

   Flood Insurance Rate Maps:

Floodplains are delineated on the Federal Insurance Rate Maps. The Federal Emergency Management Agency or FEMA prepares studies providing local agencies with the necessary information to administer their floodplains.

If a building or residence is determined to be located in a Floodplain then Floodplain use permits are required.
