NOTES

This map is for use in administering the National Flood Insurance Program;
it does not necessarily identify all areas subject to flooding,
local sources of small size, or all planimetric
Special Hazard Areas.

base flood elevations apply only landward of 0.0 NGVD, and include
effects of wave action; these elevations may also differ significantly
from those developed by the National Weather Service for hurricane
evacuation planning.

Areas of Special Flood Hazard (100-year flood) include Zones A AE, AH, AO.
A99, V, and VE.

Certain areas not in Special Flood Hazard !'>,reas may be protected b'y'
flood control structures.

Boundaries of the floodways were computed at cross sections and
interpolated between cross sections. The floodways were based on
considerations with regard to requirements of the Federal
Management Agency.
