These determinations were for the Cache La Poudre <br />River, The 90-day appeal period that was initiated on October 26, 2000, when the Federal Emergency <br />Management Agency (FEMA) published a notice of proposed Base Flood Elevations (BFEs) in the Windsor <br />Beacon, has elapsed. <br /> <br />FEMA received no valid requests for changes to the modified BFEs. Therefore, the modified BFEs that <br />, became effective on January 24, 2001, remain valid and revise the FIRM that was in effect prior to that date. <br /> <br />The modifications are pursuant to Section 206 of the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 (Public <br />Law 93-234) and are in accordance with the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended (Title XIII of <br />the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968, Public Law 90-448), 42 U.S.C. 4001-4128, and 44 CFR <br />Part 65. The community number(s) and suffix code(s) are unaffected by this revision. The community <br />number and appropriate suffix code as shown above will be used by the National Flood Insurance Program <br />(NFIP) for all flood insurance policies and renewals issued for your community. <br /> <br />FEMA has developed criteria for floodplain management as required under the above-mentioned Acts of <br />1968 and 1973. To continue participation in the NFIP, your community must use the modified BFEs to carry <br />out the floodplain management regulations for the NFIP. The modified BFEs will also be used to calculate <br />the appropriate flood insurance premium rates for all new buildings and their contents and for the second <br />layer of insurance on existing buildings and their contents. <br /> <br />'-... <br />
