FLOOD PLAIN

Plans and calculations submitted for the installation of a manufactured home, mobile home, or factory built building in a designated flood prone area. 

A site specific foundation system intended for use in a flood designated area (FEMA or local flood district designation) is required for review and approval by our office.  Be advised, the proposed foundation system requires review and approval by the local flood district having authority prior to submittal to ADOH for approval.

ADOH has available a set of MINIMUM STANDARDS FOR MANUFACTURED HOUSING FOUNDATIONS IN FLOOD PLAINS (see ‘Documents” on sidebar).  The standards are not available for use with commercial factory-built buildings.

Applicants electing to use the MINIMUM STANDARDS FOR MANUFACTURED HOUSING FOUNDATIONS IN FLOOD PLAINS (where applicable, as determined by the local flood control district first), must select the installation option pages they intend to use.  The plans are required to be approved by the local flood district having authority prior to submittal to this Office.  

Upon issuance of a flood plain plan approval from the Office, the applicant may proceed with the manufactured or mobile home installation permit application.

Refer to Flood Plain Installation Checklist for information to be included in the plan submittal.
