<br />2 <br /> <br />Because this revision request also affects the Town of Columbine Valley and the City of Littleton, separate <br />LOMRs for those communities were issued on the same date as this LOMR, <br /> <br />The modifications are effective as of the date shown above, The map panel(s) as listed above and as <br />modified by this letter will be used for all flood insurance policies and renewals issued for your community. <br /> <br />A review of the determination made by this LOMR and any requests to alter this determination should be <br />made within 30 days, Any request to alter the determination must be based on scientific or technical data. <br /> <br />We will not physically revise and republish the FIRM and Flood Insurance Study (FIS) report for your <br />community to reflect the modifications made by this LOMR at this time, When changes to 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 established under the NFIP, Your <br />community is responsible for approving all floodplain development, and for ensuring all necessary permits <br />required by Federal or State law have been received, State, county, and community officials, based on <br />knowledge of local conditions and in the interest of safety, may set higher standards for construction in the <br />Special Flood Hazard ATea, If the State. county, or community has adopted more restrictive or <br />comprehensive floodplain management criteria, these criteria take precedence over the minimum NFIP <br />criteria, <br /> <br />Because this LOMR will not be printed and distributed 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 an article for publication in your community's local newspaper, This <br />article should describe the changes that have been made and the assistance that officials of your community <br />will give to interested persons by providing these data and interpreting the NFIP maps, <br /> <br />This determination has been made pursuant to Section 206 of the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 <br />(Public Law 93-234) and is in accordance with the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended <br />(Title XIIl of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968, Public Law 90-448), 42 U.S,C, <br />4001-4128, and 44 CFR Part 65, Pursuant to Section 1361 of the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, <br />as amended, communities participating in the NFIP are required to adopt and enforce floodplain <br />management regulations that meet or exceed NFIP criteria, These criteria are the minimum requirements <br />and do not supersede any State or local requirements of a more stringent nature, This includes adoption <br />of the effective FIRM and FIS report to which the regulations apply and the modifications described in this <br />LOMR, <br />
