The results of the Flood Risk Analysis Study are available in a technical document that provides information used for floodplain management. This is known as the Flood Insurance Study (FIS). The engineering models behind the FIS may be requested from FEMA. For more information about the FIS, see IS-0274 How to Use a Flood Insurance Study (FIS) course available at https://training.fema.gov/is/courseoverview.aspx?code=IS-274

In older map sets (before 1986), regulatory floodways and other floodplain management information may be shown on a separate Flood Boundary and Floodway Map (FBFM). It is typically distributed with the Flood Insurance Study (FIS) but is not distributed as a part of a standard Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) request.

In newer Flood Insurance Studies, floodways are included on the FIRM. However, some Flood Boundary and Floodway Maps (FBFMs) still remain in use.
