<br /> Colorado has received approximately$11.0 million in federal grant dollars for floodplain mapping
<br /> activities as part of the floodplain Map Modernization Program(Program) initiated by FEMA in 2003.
<br /> The FEMA funds are being matched by CWCB and local cost-share dollars to implement the map update
<br /> work to create new digital floodplain maps. The initial Program funds authorized in the 2003 and all
<br /> subsequent Construction Fund Bills have provided the required non-federal matching dollars(80/20 cost
<br /> share program). The State funds are further leveraged by local cost share dollars and in-kind services
<br /> from many communities thus far.The total funding amounts have been instrumental in keeping Colorado
<br /> as a lead state within FEMA Region 8 and will continue to benefit Colorado communities in the future. It
<br /> is expected that significant FEMA funding will continue as long as the Program exists. Program
<br /> deliverables will become part of the Flood DSS system to increase data capture and enhance Colorado's
<br /> decision support tools.
<br /> The Program will eventually impact the entire state,and the objective is to develop updated watershed-
<br /> • based countywide floodplain maps using current base map information within a digital environment. The
<br /> use of GIS technology will be employed for all new countywide studies for ease of distribution,updating
<br /> and viewing. The table below summarizes funding provided by the CWCB and FEMA/Local
<br /> governments for CWCB managed projects(in progress or completed).
