<br /> <br />Federal Emergency Management Agency <br />Washington, D.C. 20472 <br /> <br />OCT 09 1997 <br /> <br /> <br />Arvada, Colorado 80004 <br /> <br />IN REPLY REFER TO CASE NO. 97-08-364A <br />Community: City of Arvada, Colorado <br />Community No.: 085072 <br />Map Panel Affected: 0002 B <br />Map Effective Date: February 19, 1992 <br />2l8-70-NS <br /> <br />Dear_ <br /> <br />We reviewed your request dated August 4, 1997, for a Letter of Map Amendment. All required information for <br />this request was received on September 9, 1997. Using the information submitted and the effective National Flood <br />Insurance Program (NFIP) map, we determined the structure on the property described below is in a Special Flood <br />Hazard Area (SFHA), the area that would be inundated by the flood having a I-percent chance of being equaled <br />or exceeded in any given year (base flood). The structure, as shown on the effective NFIP map, remains in the <br />SFHA designated Zone AE. <br /> <br />Property Description: Lot 3, Block 1, Maplewood Estates First Filing, as shown on the Plat recorded <br />as Instrument No. 893494 in Book 22, Page 45, in the Office of the Clerk and <br />Recorder, Jefferson County, Colorado <br /> <br />Street Address: <br /> <br />10841 West 68th Place <br /> <br />Flooding Source: <br /> <br />Ralston Creek <br /> <br />The elevation of the lowest adjacent grade to a structure (the lowest ground touching the structure) must be at or <br />above the base flood elevation (BFE) for the structure to be outside the SFHA. Because the elevation of the lowest <br />adjacent grade to the structure, 5,406.1 feet, is lower than the BFE, 5,408.4 feet, the structure is within the SFHA. <br />These elevations are referenced to the National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929. <br /> <br />This determination is based on the flood data presently available. The enclosed document provides additional <br />information about your options for obtaining a Letter of Map Amendment. If you have any questions about this <br />letter, please contact Ms. Agnes De Coca of our staff in Washington, DC, either by telephone at (202) 646-2746 <br />or by facsimile at (202) 646-4596. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />Jt~<:,-C0-- <br /> <br />..tv Frederick H.
