5. FPR 98-476: Flood Hazard Boundary Map (FHBM), dated January 16, 1976, was prepared _ by the Federal Insurance Administration for the Town ofPlatteville in Weld County. The study .. includes approximate floodplain information for storm drainage areas in the community. 6. FPR 98-477: A Type 15 Flood Insurance Study (FIS), City of Englewood, Colorado, labeled "Not for Public Release", dated November 1971, was prepared by the Federal Insurance Administration for the community. The study includes detailed floodplain information for streams in the community. That detailed information has subsequently been superceded by more recent floodplain information (dated 1991) already designated and approved by the CWCB. 7. FPR 98-478: A Flood Insurance Study (FIS),Arapahoe County, Colorado and Incorporated Areas, dated April 17, 1989, was prepared by FEMA for Arapahoe County and municipalities in the county, including the City of Englewood. The study includes detailed floodplain information for streams in Englewood. That detailed information revised the information in the 1971 study and in a subsequent 1979 study. It was, in turn, revised by the 1991 study that has already been designated and approved by the CWCB.

Due to subsequent man-made changes to some of the floodplains and due to the preparation of more up-to-date floodplain information, these studies are no longer compliant with those requirements. The proposed resolutions for those 2 floodplain studies have been reviewed and discussed with the interested parties. The staff recommends that formal acknowledgement action (at one time they 2 e
