~ -"', ; 2 have decreased compared to the BFEs shown on the effective FIRM and on the Flood Profiles in the effective FIS report. The maximum decrease in BFE, 0.2 feet, occurs approximately 1,400 feet upstream of the confluence of Bear Creek Tributary Number 6. Due to the limitations of the scale of the Flood Profiles, Flood Profile Panel 02P cannot be revised to reflect the decrease in BFE. The width of the Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) has decreased compared to the width of the SFHA shown on the effective FIRM. The maximum decrease in width, approximately 150 feet, occurs approximately 1,250 feet upstream of the confluence of Bear Creek Tributary Number 6. The BFEs along Bear Creek Tributary Number 6 have both increased and decreased compared to the BFEs shown on the effective FIRM and on the Flood Profiles in the effective FIS report. The maximum increase in BFE, 1.9 feet, occurs approximately 150 feet downstream of Morrison Road. The maximum decrease in BFE, 1.6 feet, occurs just upstream of Morrison Road. No insurable structures are impacted by the increase in BFEs. The width of the SFHA has decreased compared to the width of the SFHA shown on the effective FIRM. The maximum decrease in SFHA width, approximately 100 feet, occurs just downstream of Morrison Road. The FIRM has also been revised to indicate that the berm along the west bank of Bear Creek Tributary Number 6 downstream of Morrison Road provides protection against the base flood. ' ' The modifications are shown on the enclosed annotated copies of FIRM Panel 0290 B and Profile Panel 53P. This LOMR hereby revises this panel of the effective FIRM dated August 5, 1986, and the Flood Profile in the FIS report dated July 4, 1989. The following table is a partial listing of existing and modified BFEs along Bear Creek Tributary Number 6: Location Existing BFE (feet)* Modified BFE (feet)* Approximately 450 feet downstream of Morrison Road Approximately 150 feet downstream of Morrison Road Just upstream of Morrison Road Approximately 350 upstream of Morrison Road 5472 5480 5487 5490 5472 5482 5486 5490 *Referenced to the National Geodetic Vertical Datum, rounded to the nearest whole foot Public notification of the revised BFEs will be given in the Golden Transcript on or about April 19 and April 26, 1996. A copy of this notification is enclosed. Any request for reconsideration must be based on scientific or technical data. In addition, a notice of changes will be published in the Federal Rel!ister. Because this LOMR will not be printed and distributed to primary users, such as local insurance agents and mortgage lenders, your community will serve as a repository for these new data. We encourage you to disseminate the information reflected by this LOMR throughout the community, so that interested persons, such as property owners, local insurance agents, and mortgage lenders, may benefit from the information. We also encourage you to prepare a related article for publication in your community's local newspaper. This article should describe the assistance that officials of your community will give to interested persons by providing these data and interpreting the NFIP maps.
