<br /> Colorado has received approximately$10.0 million in federal grant dollars for floodplain mapping activities
<br /> as part of the floodplain Map Modernization Program(Program) initiated by FEMA in 2003. The FEMA
<br /> funds are being matched by CWCB and local cost-share dollars to implement the map update work to create
<br /> new digital countywide maps. The initial Program funds authorized in the 2003 and all subsequent
<br /> Construction Fund Bills have provided the required non-federal matching dollars(80/20 cost share program).
<br /> The State funds are further leveraged by local cost share dollars and in-kind services from many
<br /> communities thus far. The total funding amounts have been instrumental in keeping Colorado as a lead state
<br /> within FEMA Region 8 and will continue to benefit Colorado communities in the future. It is expected that
<br /> 0 significant FEMA funding will continue as long as the Program exists. Program deliverables will become
<br /> part of the Flood DSS system to increase data capture and enhance Colorado's decision support tools.
<br /> The Program will eventually impact the entire state, and the objective is to develop updated watershed-based
<br /> countywide floodplain maps using current base map information within a digital environment. The use of
<br /> GIS technology will be employed for all new countywide studies for ease of distribution, updating and
<br /> viewing. The table below summarizes funding provided by the CWCB and FEMA/Local governments for
<br /> CWCB managed projects(in progress or completed).
