Preliminary DFIRM
Preliminary DFIRMs

To view and print a portion of a Preliminary DFIRM, choose a county from the map or select a county from the drop-down list below. You will be redirected to FEMA’s Map Service Center Web site, where you can select a portion of the DFIRM and print a full-scale section called a “FIRMette.”

A FIRMette also includes the map title block, north arrow, and scale bar. There is no charge for making a FIRMette. And because a FIRMette is a full-scale section of an official FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Map, it can be used in all aspects of the National Flood Insurance Program, including floodplain management, flood insurance, and enforcement of mandatory flood insurance purchase requirements. To learn how to create a FIRMette, the Map Service Center created a useful tutorial available.

Another option to view and download large-scale files of the Preliminary Digital Flood Insurance Rate Maps (DFIRMs) and associated Flood Insurance Study (FIS) reports for Hancock, Harrison, and Jackson Counties, is to visit the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality Web site. This site also contains meeting dates and related materials. (DFIRMs in PDF format, file size 10MB to 60MB).
