\ NOTES

Thjs map is for use in administering the National Flood Insurance Program;
it oes not necessarily identify all areas subject to flooding, particularly from
10 lal drainage sources of small size, or all planimetric features outside
Sp(:lcial Flood Hazard Areas.
'I
Corstal base flood elevations apply only landward of 0.0 NGVD, and include
the effects of wave action; these elevations may also differ significantly
from those developed by the National Weather Service for hurricane
ev~cuation planning.

Arts of Special Flood Hazard (100-year flood) include Zones A. AE, AH, AO,
A9 ,V, and VE.

Ce ain areas not in Special Flood Hazard Areas may be protected by
fiOrd control structures.

BOl-lndaries of the floodways were computed at cross sections and
int~rpolated between cross sections. The floodways were based on
nydtraulic considerations with regard to requirements of the Federal
EiT1ergency Management Agency.

Fldodway widths in some areas may be too narrow to show to scale.
Floiodway widths are provided in the Flood Insurance Study Report.

Thi~ map may incorporate approximate boundaries of Coastal Barrier
Re~ource System Units and lor Otherwise Protected Areas established
under the Coastal Barrier Improvement Act of 1990 (PL 101-591).

CoJporate limits shown are current as of the date of this map. The user
Sh~uld contact appropriate community officials to determine if corporate
