<br />3 <br /> <br />We will not physically revise and republish the FIRM and FIS report for your community to reflect the <br />modifications made by this LOMR at this time. When changes to the previously cited FIRM panels and <br />FIS report warrant physical revision and republication in the future, we will incorporate the <br />modifications made by this LOMR at that time. <br /> <br />The floodway is provided to your community as a tool to regulate floodplain development. Therefore, <br />the floodwa,y modifications described in this LOMR, while acceptable to FEMA, must also be acceptable <br />to your community and adopted by appropriate community action, as specified in Paragraph 60.3( d) of <br />the NFIP regulations. <br /> <br />This LOMR is based on minimum floodplain management criteria established under the NFIP. Your <br />community is responsible for approving all floodplain development and for ensuring all necessary <br />permits required by Federal or State law have been received. State, county, and community officials, <br />based on knowledge of local conditions and in the interest of safety, may set higher standards for <br />construction in the SFHA. Ifthe State, county, or community has adopted more restrictive or <br />comprehensive floodplain management criteria, these criteria take precedence over the minimum NFIP <br />criteria. <br /> <br />This determination has been made pursuant to Section 206 of the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 <br />(Public Law 93-234) and is in accordance with the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended <br />(Title XIII of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968, Public Law 90-448),42 U.S.C. <br />4001-4128, and 44 CFR Part 65 Pursuant to Section 1361 of the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, <br />as amended, communities participating in the NFlP are required to adopt and enforce floodplain <br />management regulations that meet or exceed minimum NFIP criteria. These criteria are the minimum <br />and do not supersede any State or local requirements of a more stringent nature. This includes adoption <br />of the effective FIRM to which the regulations apply and the modifications described in this LOMR. <br />Our records show that your community has met this requirement. <br /> <br />A Consultation Coordination Officer (CCO) has been designated to assist your community. The CCO <br />will be the primary liaison between your community and FEMA. For information r1egarding your ceo, <br />please contact: <br /> <br />Mr. Steve L.
