NOTES

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

Coastal base flood elevations landward of 0.0 NGVD, and include
the effects of wave action; 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 Areas may be protected by
flood control structures.

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

Floodway widths in some areas may be too narrow to show to
