Activity 10A - Floodplain Mapping (Redelineation of Detailed Floodplain
Boundaries Using Updated Topographic Data)
Responsible Mapping Partner: CWCB
Scope: CWCB shall delineate the 1- and 0.2-percent-annual-chance floodplain boundaries and the
regulatory floodway boundaries (if required) for all ef.fective flooding sources. CWCB shall use the
topographic data acquired under Activity 4 to cielineate the floodplain and regulatory floodway
• boundaries as appropriate on a digital work map.
The data quality standards documented in Sec~`ion 7 of the Multi-Year Flood Hazard Identification Plan
(MHIP) for Fiscal Year 2004-2008 (Version I,November 2004) should be used as the basis for producing
DFIRMs. While it has been determined that DFIRMs that do not meet the quality standards stated above
may not be considered toward meeting the Mal~ Mod metrics, it has also been understood that in some
cases, the cost to meet the standards is excessi,ve and funding is unavailable. In these cases, the Project
Team iizcluding FEMA, the NSP, and the State will meet and determine the most reasonable action. The
MIP utilities available at the time studies are i~~zitiated should be run to verify compliance with these data
quality standards. Compliance with these standards will help FEMA achieve a Map Modernization goal
of providing a reliable, web-based national flood layer in digital GlSformat. The floodplain boundary
data quality standards outlined in Table 7-1 of ~the MHIP should be followed in addition to existing
standards specified for floodplain mapping in i`he Guidelines, including Volume I, Section 1.4 and
Appendices C, D, E, F, G, H, K, L, M, and N. Table 7-1 shall be applied to all approximate, existing
detaileci and new detailed studies for riverine c~nd coastal flooding sources.
In addi.tion, CWCB shall address all concerns or questions regarding Activity l0A that are identified by
FEMA/NSP during the independent QA/QC review under Activity 11.
Standards: All work under Activity l0A shall be performed in accordance with the standards specified in
Section 5 of this MAS.
Deliverables: Upon completion of floodplain rnapping for the flooding sources listed in Table 1-1,
CWCB shall submit the mapping to FEMA/NS~P for an independent QA/QC review under Activity 11.
CWCB shall submit the mapping for the remai:ning flooding sources for a final QA/QC review at the
• completion of this activity. In accordance with~ the TSDN format described in described in Appendix M
