According to FEMA flood maps may force more insurance purchases -- Newsday.com (broken link) "New flood maps for Nassau County could force thousands of previously exempt South Shore property owners to buy flood insurance and, in some cases, adhere to more rigorous building standards."
The article states, "In Nassau, the new maps would have the biggest impact on barrier beach communities such as Long Beach, Atlantic Beach and Point Lookout, and southern parts of the Town of Hempstead, including sections of Hewlett and nearby Woodsburgh and Baldwin. On the North Shore, buildings in the new floodplain include some in the Port Washington-Sands Point area."
