<br />Zone X <br /> <br />Zone X is the flood insurance rate zone that corresponds to areas <br />outside the SOD-year floodplain, areas within the SOD-year <br />floodplain, areas of 100-year flooding where average depths are <br />less than 1 foot, areas of 100-year flooding where the contributing <br />drainage area is less than 1 square mile, and areas protected from <br />the 100-year flood by levees. No base flood elevations or depths <br />are shown within this zone. <br /> <br />6.0 FLOOD INSURANCE RATE MAP <br /> <br />The Flood Insurance Rate Map is designed for flood insurance and <br />floodplain management applications. <br /> <br />For flood insurance applications, the map designates flood insurance <br />rate zones as described in Section 5.0 and, in the 100-year floodplains <br />that were studied by detailed methods, shows selected whole-foot base <br />flood elevations or average depths. Insurance agents use the zones and <br />base flood elevations in conjunction with information on structures and <br />their contents to assign premium rates for flood insurance policies. <br /> <br />For floodplain management applications, the map shows by tints, screens, <br />and symbols, the 100- and SOD-year floodplains, floodways, and the <br />locations of selected cross sections used in the hydraulic analyses and <br />floodway computations. <br /> <br />7.0 OTHER STUDIES <br /> <br />This Flood Insurance Study was prepared by compiling existing hydrologic <br />and hydraulic information, and technical and scientific data prepared by <br />other organizations originally for purposes other than those of the <br />NFIP. The data were identified as the best available at the time of <br />compilation of this Flood Insurance Study and should depict the general <br />conditions of the flooding SOurces with relative accuracy. FEMA <br />performed a cursory review and accepted the data as valid for purposes <br />for this Flood Insurance Study and the NFIP. However, if better <br />information is known to exist or has been developed since the dale of <br />this report, the information should be immediately forwarded to the <br />Natural and Technological Hazards Division, FEMA, Denver Federal Center, <br />Building 710, Box 25267, Denver, Colorado 80225-0267 for consideration <br />in revision of this study. <br /> <br />This report either supersedes or is compatible with all previous studies <br />published on streams studied in this report and should be considered <br />authoritative for the purposes of the NFIP. <br /> <br />9 <br />
