A copy of this notification is enclosed. In addition, a notice of changes will be <br />published in the Federal Register. Within 90 days of the second publication in The Villager, any <br />interested party may request that FEMA reconsider the detennination made by this LOMR. Any request <br />for reconsideration must be based on scientific or technical data. All interested parties are on notice that, <br />until the 90-day period elapses. the detennination to modify the BFEs made by this LOMR may itself be <br />modified. <br /> <br />Because this LOMR will not be printed and distributed to primary users. such as local insurance agents <br />and mortgage lenders. your community will serve as a repository for these new data. We encourage you <br />to disseminate the infonnation reflected by this LOMR throughout the community, so that interested <br />persons, such as property owners, local insurance agents. and mortgage lenders, may benefit from the <br />infonnation. We also encourage you to prepare a related article for publication in your community's <br />local newspaper. This article should describe the assistance that officials of your community will give to <br />interested persons by providing these data and interpreting the NFIP maps. <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 panel 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 />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 />penn its 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. If the 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 detennination 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 ~FR Part 65. Pursuant to Section 1361 of the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, <br />as amended, communities participating in the NFIP are required to adopt and enforce floodplain <br />management regulations that meet or exceed minimum NFIP criteria.
