NOTES

This j1ap is for use in administering the National Flood Insurance Program;
it doe not necessarily identify all areas subject to flooding, particularly from
local rainage sources of small size, or all planimetric features outside
Specia Flood Hazard Areas.

Coasta base flood elevations apply only landward of 0.0 NGVD, and include
the e ~ects of wave action; these elevations may also differ significantly
from those developed by the National Weather Service for hurricane
evacua ion planning.

Areas f Special Flood Hazard (100-year flood) include Zones A, AE, AH, AO,
A99. V and VE.

certain! areas not in Special Flood Hazard Areas may be protected by
flood ontrol structures.

Bounjries of the floodways were computed, at cross sections and
interpo ated between cross sections. The floodways were based on
hydrau ic considerations with regard to reqUirem,.. ents of the Federal
Emerg ncy Management Agency. .

Flood ay widths in some areas may be too narrow to show to scale.
Flood ay widths are provided in the Flood In~urance Study Report.

This 1ap may incorporate approximate boundad~s of Coastal Barrier
Resour e System Units and lor Otherwise protec~e. d Areas established
under the Coastal Barrier Improvement Act of i 1990 (PL 101-591).

Corpor te limits shown are current as of the date bf this map. The user
should contact appropriate community officials to C;ietermine if corporate
