All interested parties are on notice that, until <br />the 90-day period elapses, the determination to modify lhe BFEs presented in this LOMR may itself be <br />modified. <br /> <br />Because this LOMR will not be printed and distribuled to primary users, such as local insurance agents and <br />mortgage lenders, your community will serve as a repository for these new data, We encourage you to <br />disseminate the information reflected by this LOMR throughout the community, so that interested persons, <br />such as property owners, local insurance agents, and mortgage lenders, may benefit from the information, <br />We also encourage you to prepare a related article for publication in your community's local newspaper. <br />This article should describe the assistance that officials of your community will give to interested persons <br />by providing these data and inlerpreting lhe NFIP maps, <br /> <br />We will not physically revise and republish the FIRM and Flood Insurance Study (FIS) report for your <br />community to reflecl the modifications made by this LOMR at this time, When changes 10 the previously <br />cited FIRM panel(s) and FIS report warrant physical revision and republication in the future, we will <br />incorporate the modifications made by this LOMR at that time, <br /> <br />This LOMR is based on minimum floodplain management criteria eSlablished under the NFlP.

If the State, county, or community has adopted more restrictive or comprehensive floodplain <br />management criteria, these criteria take precedence over the minimum NFIP criteria. <br /> <br />The basis of this LOMR is, in whole or in part, a channel-modification/culvert project. NFIP regulations, <br />as cited in Paragraph 60.3(b)(7), require thaI communities ensure that lhe flood-carrying capacity within <br />the altered or relocated portion of any watercourse is mainlained, This provision is incorporated into your <br />community's existing floodplain managemenl regulations, Consequently, lhe ultimate responsibility for <br />maintenance of the modified channel and culvert rests with your community, <br /> <br />This determinalion has been made pursuant to Section 206 of the Flood Disasler Protection Act of 1973 <br />(Public Law 93-234) and is in accordance with the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended <br />(Tille XIII of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968, Public Law 90-448), 42 <br />
