Box 897 <br />Grand Junction, Colorado 81501 <br /> <br />Dear Mr. Roland: <br /> <br />on April 18, 1977, a final community coordination meeting was held for <br />Mesa County, Colorado. Prior to that meeting our regional representa- <br />tive provided you with a preliminary draft of the flood insurance study <br />for the community. This study includes certain base flood elevations <br />and was pocepared pursuant to provisions of the National Flood Insurance <br />Act of 1968, as amended (public Law 90-448, signed August 1, 1968). <br /> <br />The purpose of this letter is to notify your community of the proposed <br />base flood elevations which will be the basis for the flood plain manage- <br />ment measures that the community must either adopt or show evidence of <br />being already in effect in order to qualify or remain qualified for <br />participation in the National Flood Insurance Program. <br /> <br />Public notification of the proposed base flood elevation determinations <br />is being given in the Daily Sentinel on September 12, 1977, and <br />September 13, 1977. A copy of this notification is enclosed. In <br />addition, a notice of Proposed Base Flood Elevation Determinations will <br />be published in the Federal Register. <br /> <br />Section 110 of the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 (Public Law 93- <br />234) is intended ~o assure an equitable balancing of all the interests <br />involved in the setting of flood elevation determinations. The legisla- <br />tion provides for an explicit process of notification and appeals for <br />the community and for private persons prior to this office making the <br />final flood elevation determinations. We have outlined the appeal <br />procedure below for your information at this time. The regulations <br />developed by this agency to implement Section 110 may be found in Part <br />1917 of Title 24 of the Code of Federal Regulations. Copies of the Act <br />and Regulations are enclosed. <br />
