<br />,t- '-. <br /> <br />2 <br /> <br />Upon completion of the project, please submit "as-built" plans, certified by <br />a registered professional engineer, of all proposed project elements. <br /> <br />Please note that in accordance with Section 65.12(b) of the National Flood <br />Insurance Program (NFIP) regulations, your community, prior to approving the <br />proposed encroachments, must provide evidence to us of the adoption of <br />floodplain management ordinances incorporating the increased BFEs and revised <br />floodway reflecting the post-project condition. <br /> <br />A LOMR will not be issued at this time to reflect the new "existing" <br />conditions. We will make a final determination on revising the FIRM by <br />either a Letter of Map Revision or Physical Map Revision upon receipt of <br />"as-built" plans, and data required for Section 65.12(b) described above. <br /> <br />The basis of this CLOMR is, in part, a proposed channel modification project. <br />NFIP regulations, as cited in Paragraph 60.3(b)(7), require that communities <br />"assure that the flood-carrying capacity within the altered or relocated <br />portion of any watercourse is maintained." <br /> <br />This provlslon is incorporated into your community's existing floodplain <br />management regulations. Consequently, upon completion of this proposed <br />project, the ultimate responsibility for maintenance of the channel <br />modification will rest with your community. <br /> <br />If you have any questions, please call Mrs. Cynthia M. Croxdale of my staff <br />in Washington, D.C., at (202) 646-3458. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />w~.~?,~ <br /> <br />William R.
