LEGEND
SPECIAL FLOOD HAZARD AREAS (SFHAs) SUBJECT TO
INUNDATION BY THE lOA. ANNUAL CHANCE FLOOD

NOTES TO USERS

This map is for use in administering the National Flood Insurance Program. It
does not necessarily identify all areas subject to flooding, particularly from local
drainage sources of small size. The community map repository should be
consulted for possible updated or additional flood hazard information.

The 1% annual chance flood (l00-year 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 Hazard Area is the area subject to flooding by the 1% annual chance flood. Areas
of Special Flood Hazard indude Zones A, Af, AH, AO, AR, A99, V and VE. The Base
Rood Elevation is the water-surface elevation of the 1% annual chance flood.

No Base Flood Elevations determined.

Base Flood Elevations determined.

Rood depths of 1 to 3 feet (usually areas of ponding); Base Flood
Elevations determined.

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

Special Flood Hazard Area formerly protected from the 1 % annual
chance flood by a flood control system that was subsequently
decertified. Zone AR indicates that the former flood control system is
being restored to provide protection from the 1% annual chance or
greater flood.

Area to be protected from 1 % annual chance flood by a Federal
flood protection system under construction; no Base Rood Elevations
determined.

Coastal flood zone with velocity hazard (wave action); no Base Flood
Elevations determined.

Coastal flood zone with veJodty hazard (wave action); Base Flood
Elevations determined.

To obtain more detailed information in areas where Base Flood Elevations
(BFEs) and/or floodways have been determined, users are encouraged to consult
the Flood Profiles and Floodway Data and/or Summary of Stillwater Elevations
tables contained within the Flood Insurance Study (FIS) report that accompanies
this FIRM. 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 FIS
report should be utilized in conjunction with the FIRM for purposes of
construction and/or floodplain management.

Coastal Base Flood Elevations shown on this map apply only landward
of 0.0' North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD 88). Users of this
FI RM should be aware that coastal flood elevations are also provided in the
Summary of Stillwater Elevations table in the Flood Insurance Study report
for this jurisdiction. Elevations shown in the Summary of Stillwater Elevations
table should be used for construction and/or floodplain management purposes
when they are higher than the elevations shown on this FIRM.

ZONE A99

ZONE V

Boundaries of the floodways 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 f100dway data are provided in the Flood Insurance
Study report for this jurisdiction.

FLOODWAY AREAS IN ZONE AE

Certain areas not in Special Flood Hazard Areas may be protected by flood
control structures. Refer to Section 2.4 "Flood Protection Measuresll of
the Flood Insurance Study report for information on flood control structures
for this jurisdiction.

The floodway 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.

The projection used in the preparation of this map was Universal Transverse
Mercator (UTM) zone 13. The horizontal datum was 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 this 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 same 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 http://www.ngs.noaa.gov/ or contact the National Geodetic
Survey at the following address:

To obtain current elevation, description, and/or location information for bench marks
shown on this map, please contact the Information Services Branch of the
National Geodetic Survey at [phone], or visit its website at
http://www.ngs.noaa.gov/.

Corporate limits shown on this map are based on the best data available
at the time of publication. Because changes due to annexations or de-annexations
may have occurred after this map was published, map users should contact
appropriate community officials to verify current corporate limit locations.

Base map information shown on this FIRM was provided in digital format by
Fremont County Regional GIS Authority.

This map reflects more detailed and up-to-date stream channel configurations
than those shown on the previous FIRM 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 Roodway Data tables in the Flood Insurance
Study report (which contains authoritative hydraulic data) may reflect stream
channel distances that differ from what is shown on this map.

Please refer to the separately printed Map Index for an overview map of the
county showing the layout of map panels; community map repository addresses;
and a Listing of Communities table containing National Rood Insurance Program
dates for each community as well as a listing of the panels on which each
community is located.
