The review process will fully take into account any technical or scientific
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 administra-
tive hearing, or by submission of the conflicting data to an independent scien-
tific body or appropriate Federal agency for advice. The reports and other
information used in making the final determination will be made available
for public inspection. until the conflict of data is resolved, and until
the Flood Insurance Rate Map becomes effective, flood insurance previously
available 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 conmunity to appeal. or a copy of its decision not to
appeal, should be filed with this office no later than 90 days following the
second publication of proposed base flood elevations.

It is suggested that you may find it appropriate to call further attention
to the proposed base fl00d elevation determinations and to the appeal procedure
by using a press release or other public notice.

If there are further questions regarding the fl00d elevation determinations
or the Flood Insurance Study for the community, please contact the Director,
Insurance and Mitigation Division of the Federal Emergency Management Agency
in Lakewood, Colorado at [phone] or members of my staff in Washington,
D.C., at [phone].

Sincerely,
