Yellow pages - any private surveyor or engineer should have some insight. Most know how to conduct these. Make sure they know the purpose of obtaining this certificate (i.e. Letter of Map Amendment, insurance rating, etc...). It can affect the way they go about their work. Prices typically range from $350-600 (depending on what part of the country you're in). Shop around if you get higher quotes than that. If you need more insight, your local community should have a floodplain management specialist or administrator of some kind. They can lead you in the right direction.
