Certain areas of Crawford County are subject to periodic flooding, which may cause serious damage to properties within these areas.  Relief is available to affected property owners in the form of federally-subsidized flood insurance.  Crawford County has adopted regulations for areas of special flood hazard that are necessary for participation in the National Flood Insurance Program.

Floodplain maps are available for viewing at the Crawford County Engineer’s Office during normal business hours.

A Flood Hazard Area Development Permit must be obtained prior to performing any type of development within a floodplain.  That permit application may be downloaded from the “Forms/Permits” section of this website.
