The <br />NFIP regulatory f100dway is the area that must remain unobstructed in order to prevent unacceptable increases in <br />base flood elevations. Therefore. no construction may take place in an NFIP regulatory f100dway that may cause <br />an increase in the base flood elevation. and any future construction or substantial improvement on the property <br />remains subject to Federal, StateiCommonwealth. and local regulations for floodplain management. The NFIP <br />regulator}' floodway is provided to the community as a tool to regulate floodplain development. Therefore, the <br />NFIP regulatory fioodway modification described in the Determination Document, while acceptable to the Federal <br />Emergency r\.~anagement Agency (FEMA), must also be acceptable to the community and adopted by <br />appropriate community action. as specified in Paragraph 60.3{d) of the NFIP regulations. Any proposed revision <br />to the NFIP regulatory floodway must be submitted to FEMA by community officials. The community should <br />contact either the Regional Director (for those communities in Regions I-IV. and VI-X), or the Regional Engineer <br />(for those communities in Region V) for guidance on the data which must be submitted for a revision to the NFIP <br />regulatory floodway.

Intervening high ground is natural high ground that exists between a property and/or <br />structure and the flooding source. providing the property and/or structure protection against inundation from the <br />base flood. <br /> <br />This attachment provides a:iditio':a; information regarding this request. f you have any Ques~ions about this attachment, please contact the <br />FEr...1A Map Assista..ce Ce'lte- toli free at {8r?) 336-2627 !B77-FEMA MAP; or by letter addressed to the Federal Emergency Management <br />Agency 3601 Eisel1';m'.er Ave'l"'".
