<br />. <br /> <br />2 <br /> <br />Under the above-mentioned Acts of 1968 and 1973, the Mitigation Directorate must develop criteria <br /> <br />for floodplain management. For the community to participate in the National Flood Insurance Program <br /> <br />(NFIP), the community must use the modified BFEs to administer the floodplain management measures of <br /> <br />the NFIP. These modified BFEs will also be used to calculate the appropriate flood insurance premiwn rates <br /> <br />for new buildings and their contents and for the second layer of insurance on existing buildings and contents. <br /> <br />Upon the second publication of notice of these changes in this newspaper, any person has 90 days <br /> <br />in which he or she can request, through the Chief Executive Officer of the community, that the Mitigation <br /> <br />Directorate reconsider the determination. Any request for reconsideration must be based on knowledge of <br /> <br />changed conditions or new scientific or technical data. All interested parties are on notice that until the 90- <br /> <br />day period elapses, the Mitigation Directorate's determination to modify the BFEs may itself be changed. <br /> <br />Any person having knowledge or wishing to comment on these changes should immediately notify: <br /> <br />The Honorable Robert M. Isaac <br />Mayor, City of Colorado Springs <br />P.O. Box 1575' <br />Colorado Springs, Colorado 80901 <br /> <br />or <br /> <br />The Honorable Loren Whittemore <br />Chairperson, El Paso County <br />Board of Commissioners <br />27 East Vermijo, Third Floor <br />Colorado Springs, Colorado 80903-2225 <br />
