3 i . Effective June I, 2000, FEMA revised the fee schedule for reviewing and processing requests for conditional and final modifications to published flood information and maps. In accordance with this schedule, the current fee for this map revision request is $3,400 and must be received before we can begin processing the request. Please note, however, that the fee schedule is subject to change, and requesters are required to submit the fee in effect at the time of the submittal. Payment of this fee shall be made in the form of a check or money order, made payable in U.S. funds to the National Flood Insurance Program, or by credit card. The payment must be forwarded to the following address: , Federal Emergency Management Agency Fee-Charge System Administrator P.O. Box 3173 Merrifield, VA 221 16-3173 . As-built plans, certified by a registered professional engineer, of all proposed project elements . ~ . Community acknowledgment of the map revision request . A copy of the public notice distributed by your community stating its intent to revise the regulatory floodway, or a statement by your community that it has notified all affected property owners and affected adjacent jurisdictions . A letter stating that your community will adopt and enforce the modified regulatory floodway . An officially adopted maintenance and operation plan for Big Dry Creek at the E-470 highway. This plan, which may be in the form of a written statement from the community Chief Executive Officer, an ordinance, or other legislation, must describe the nature of the maintenance activities, the frequency with which they will be performed, and the title of the local community official who will be responsible for ensuring that the maintenance activities are accomplished. After receiving appropriate documentation to show that the project has been completed, FEMA wilt initiate a revision to the FIRM and FIS report. Because the BFEs would change as a result of the project, a 90-day appeal period would be initiated, during which community officials and interested persons may appeal the revised BFEs based on scientific or technical data. ;: The basis of this CLOMR is, in whole or in part, a channel-modification/bridge project. NFIP regulations, as cited in Paragraph 60.3(b)(7), require that communities assure that the flood-carrying capacity within the altered or relocated portion of any watercourse is maintained. This provision is incorporated into your community's existing floodplain management regulations. Consequently, the ultimate responsibility for maintenance of the modified channel and bridge rests with your community. This CLOMR is based on minimum floodplain management criteria established under the NFIP. Your community is responsible for approving all floodplain development and for ensuring all necessary permits required by Federal or State law have been received. State, county, and community officials, based on knowledge of local conditions and in the interest of safety, may set higher standards for construction in the SFHA. Ifthe State, county, or community has adopted more restrictive or comprehensive floodplain management criteria,' these criteria take precedence over the minimum NFIP criteria.
