How can I determine if my property is in a floodplain?

Floodplains are designated by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). A map is available for viewing at the Building Department Office 978-454-0603. You may also call the Town Engineer 978-454-2594 for help determining your flood zone.
