The review process will fully take into account any technical or scien-
tific data submitted by the community that tend to negate or contradict
the information upon which the proposed determination is based. The
appeal will be resolved by consultation with officials of the local
government involved, by administrative hearing, or by sUbmission of the
conflicting data to an independent scientific body or appropriate
Federal agency for advice. The reports and other information used in
making the final determination will be made available for public inspec-
tion. Until the conflict of data is resolved, and until the Flood
Insurance Rate Map becomes effective, flood insurance previously avail-
able within the community shall continue to be available under the
Emergency Program, and no person shall be denied the right to purchase
the first level of insurance at chargeable rates.

The decision by the community to appeal, or a copy of its decision not
to appeal, should be filed with this office not later than December 15,
1977.

You may find it appropriate to call further attention to the proposed
base flood elevation determinations and to the appeal procedure by using
a press release or other public notice.

If available, this office will send to you during the appeal period
copies of the revised draft of the Flood Insurance Study and Rate Map.
The revised draft will include all appropriate comments and corrections
resulting from the final coordination meeting held September 29, 1976.
Whether or not proof copies of the study and map are available during
the ninety-day period, we shall send to you final proof copies with the
letter of final base flood elevation determination.

If there are further questions regarding the flood elevation determi-
nations or the Flood Insurance Study for the community, please contact
the Office of Federal Insurance Administration Regional Director in
Denver at [phone] or members of my staff in Washington, D.C., at
[phone].

Sincerely,
