Zone V 1
Zone V 1 : A Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) in coastal communities shown on the National Flood Insurance Program's (NFIP's) Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs). Zone V (for velocity) is characterized as having coastal wave action of three feet or greater in height. There are two types of V zones on Maine community FIRMs: V1-30: Numbered V Zone (e.g., V7 or V14), older coastal SFHA where a Flood Insurance Study (FIS) provided base flood elevations and where significant wave action is present during a 1% flooding event. This is an old flood hazard designation no longer used in FIRMs but is still valid for those FIRMs that have not been superseded. VE: Coastal SFHA where base flood elevations are provided and significant wave action is present during a 1% flooding event
