To obtain more detailed information in areas where Base Flood Elevation
(BFEs) and/or floodways have been determined, users are encouraged to consult
the Flood Profiles and Floodway Data tables contained within the Flood lnsur.
ance Study (FIS) report that accompanies this ARM. Users should be aware that
BFEs shown on the FIRM represent rounded whole-foot elevations. These BFEs
are intended for flood insurance rating purposes only and should not be used
as the sole source of flood elevation information. Accordingly, flood elevation
data presented in the FlS should bee utilized in conjunction with the FIRM for
purposes of construction andlor floodplain management.

Coastal Base Flood e1evation (SirEs) shown on this map apply only land-
ward of 0.0' North American Vertical Datum (NA VD). Users of this FIRM
should be aware that coastal flood elevations may also be provided in the
Summary of Stillwater Elevations table in the Flood Insurance Study report for
this community. Elevations shown in the Summary of Stillwater Elevations table
should be used for construction, andlor floodplain management purposes when
they are higher than the elevations shown ,on this FIRM.

Boundaries 01 the flocdweys were computed at cross sections and interpOlated
between cross sections. The floodways were based on hydraulic considerations
with regard to requirements of the National Flood Insurance Program .Floodway
widths and other pertinent floodway data are provided in the Flood Insurance
Study report for this jurisdiction.

Certain areas not in Special Flood Ha2ard Areas may be protected by flood
control stnu.:tures,. Refer to Section 2.4 HFlood Protection Measuresu of
the Flood Insurance Study report for information on flood control structures
in this jurisdiction.

The projection used in the preparation of this map is Universal Tranverse
Mercator (UTM) zone 13. The nori:zorrtaJ ,datum is NAD83, GRS1980
spheroid. Differences in datum, spheroid, projection or UTM zones used in
the production of FIRMs for adjacent jurisdictions may result in slight positional
differences in map features across jurisdiction boundaries. These differences
do not affect the accuracy of the FIRM.

flood elevations on this map are referenced to the North American Vertical
Datum of 1988. These flood elevations must be compared to structure and
ground elevations referenced to the sam'e vertical datum. For information
regarding conversion between the National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929
and the North American Vertical Datum of 1988, visit the National Geodetic
Survey website at www.ngs.noaa.gov or contact the National Geodetic Survey

This map reflects more detailed and up-to-date stream channel configurations
than those shown on the previous FI'RM for this jurisdiction. The floodplains
and floodways that were transferred from the previous FIRM may have been
adjusted to conform to these new stream channel configurations. As a
result, the Flood Profiles and Floodway Data tables in the Flood Insurance
Study report may reflect stream channel distances that differ from what is
shown on this map.

SPECIAL FLOOD HAZARD AREAS SUBJECT TO INUNDATION
BY THE 1 % ANNUAL CHANCE FLOOD EVENT

The 1 % annual chanca flood (1 OO-yaar flood), also known as the base flood, is the flood
that has a 1 % chance of being equaled or exceeded in any given year. The Special
Rood Ha2ard Area is the area subject to flooding by the 1 % annual chance flood. Areas
of Special Flood Ha2ard include Zones A, AE, AH, AO, AR, ASS, V, and VE. The Base
Flood Elavation is tha water surface elevation of the 1 % annual chance flood.

No base flood elevations determined.

Base flood elevations determined.

Rood depths of 1 to :3 feat (usually areas of ponding); base flood
alevations datermined.

Flood depths of 1 to 3 feet (usually sheet flow on sloping terrain);
average depths determined. For areas of alluvial fan flooding, velocities
also determined.

Area of special flood ha2ard formerly protected from the 1 % annual
chance flood event by a flood contra I system that was subsequently
decertified. Zone Aft indicates that the former flood control system is
being restored to provide protection from the 1 % annual chance or
greater flood event.

Area to be protected from 1 % annual chance flood event by a Federal
flood protection system under construction; no base flood elevations
determined.

Coastal flood 20ne with velocity NJ2ard (wave action); no base flood
elevations determined.

Coastal flood 20ne with velocity ha2iud (wave action); base flood elevations
determined.

FLOODW A Y AREAS IN ZONE AE

The flood way is the channel of a stream plus any adjacent floodplain areas that must be
kept free of encroachment so that the 1 % annual chance flood can be carried without
substantial increases in flood heights.

flood.

OTHER AREAS

Areas determined to be .outside the 0.2% annual chanca floodplain.
