The preliminary work maps are an interim product created in the process of developing preliminary Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs) and will replace the Advisory Base Flood Elevation (ABFE) information that was made available to certain impacted communities as the best available data for rebuilding and recovery efforts in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy.
Preliminary work maps have also been released for Atlantic, Cumberland, Essex, Hudson, Monmouth, Middlesex, Salem and Ocean Counties, and for New York City. Maps for additional New Jersey communities will be forthcoming.
