the living area would equate to Major Damage.

compromised. The dwelling interior mustbe so compromised by contamination that
cleanup is infesasible.

Flood-Specific NotesS Water Depths only applicable to living areas (ie: No crawl spaces or uninhabited basements)S If standing water for more than 24 hours in living area, increase on level of damageS If contaminated water in living area, increase one level of damage and identify contaminantS As a rule of thumb, if water did not reach electrical outlets and flooring is sound, then this is minor or affected damage
