FEMA previously used the Community Assistance Contact (CAC) and the Community Assistance Visit (CAV) to make a comprehensive assessment of a community's floodplain management program. Through this assessment, FEMA assisted the community to understand the NFIP's requirements and implement effective flood loss reductions measures. Communities can achieve cost savings through flood mitigation actions by way of insurance premium discounts and reduced property damage. The CAV and CAC processes have been updated recently to the NFIP Compliance Audit process which aims to do a more efficient, consistent and transparent job of assessing the communityâs floodplain management program, providing them with the needed technical assistance to improve it, and documenting the results for data analysis.

Annual burden hours decreased by -11,998. This was due to burden hour decrease of -59,998 hours collectively for the Community Assistance Visit (CAV) Report / FEMA Form FF-206-FY-21-141 (formerly 086-0-28 (E)) and Community Assistance Contact (CAC) Report / FEMA Form FF-206-FY-21-142 (formerly 086-0-29 (E)). This decrease was offset by burden hour increase of 48,000 hours, which was due to the addition of National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) Compliance Audit Report / FEMA Form FF-206-FY-24-100.
Annual burden costs decreased by -$433,834.
