U.S. Department of Homeland Security National Flood Insurance Program 8400 Corporate Drive, Suite 350 August 31, 2009 MEMORANDUM FOR: Write Your Own (WYO) Company Principal Coordinators and the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) Servicing Agent FROM: Underwriting Branch Chief Risk Insurance Division SUBJECT: Updated Community Rating System (CRS) Information The current version of the Flood Insurance Manual incorrectly includes CRS information for Community Identification (CID) number 280366 as City of D’Iberville, MS. The correct name for CID number 280366 is Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians, MS, and its status is “Not an NFIP Community.” No policies are currently in force under CID number 280366. The correct CID number for City of D’Iberville, MS, is 280336. The Community Master File was recently updated to reflect CRS Class “7” for this community, effective October 1, 2007. Attached is a revised page (CRS 17) for the October 2009 changes to the Flood Insurance Manual. In order to apply the CRS class correction effective October 1, 2007, policies written under CID number 280336 must be endorsed by the writing company. Please contact your iService Business Consultant with any questions.
