Case No.:' 03-08-0689P <br /> <br />LOMR-APP <br /> <br />i' <br /> <br />Federal Emergency Management Agency <br />Washington, D.C. 20472 <br /> <br />LETTER OF MAP REVISION <br />DETERMINATION DOCUMENT (CONTINUED) <br /> <br />COMMUNITY INFORMATION (CONTINUED) <br /> <br />COMMUNITY REMINDERS <br /> <br />We based this determination on the I-percent-annual-chance flood discharges computed in the FIS for your community without <br />considering subsequent changes in watershed characteristics that could increase flood discharges. Future development of projects <br />upstream could cause increased flood discharges, which could cause increased flood hazards. A comprehensive restudy of your <br />community's flood hazards would consider the cumulative effects of development on flood discharges subsequent to the publication of <br />the FIS report for your community and could, therefore, establish greater flood hazards in this area. <br /> <br />Your community must regulate all proposed floodplain development and ensure that permits required by Federal and/or <br />Slale/Commonwealth law have been obtained. Slate/Commonwealth or community officials, based on knowledge oflocal conditions and <br />in the inlerest of safety, may set higher slandards for construction or may limit development in floodplain areas. If your <br />Slate/Commonwealth or community has adopted more restrictive or comprehensi\lO floodplain management criteria, those criteria take I <br />precedence over the minimuin NFIP requirements. <br /> <br />We will not print and distribute this LOMR to primary users, such as local insurance agents or mortgage lenders; instead, the community <br />will serve as a repository for the new dala. We encourage you to disseminate the information in this LOMR by preparing a news release <br />for publication in your community's newspaper that describes the revision and explains how your community will provide the dala and <br />help interpret the NFIP maps. In that way, interested persons, such as property owners, insurance agents, and mortgage lenders, can <br />benefit from the information. <br /> <br />We have designated a Consultalion Coordination Officer (CCO) to assist your community. The CCO will be the primary liaison between <br />your community and FEMA. For information regarding your CCO, please conlact: <br /> <br />Mr. Steve L. Olsen <br />Director, Federal Insurance and Mitigation Division <br />Federal Emergency Management Agency, Region VIII <br />Denver Federal Center, Building 710 <br />P.O. Box 25267 <br />Denver, CO 80225-0267 <br />(303) 235-4830 <br /> <br />STATUS OF THE COMMUNITY NFIP MAPS <br /> <br />We will not physically revise and republish the FIRM and FIS report for your community to reflect the modifications made by this <br />LOMR at this time. When changes to the previously cited FIRM panel and FIS report warrant physical revision and republication in the <br />future, we will incorporate the modifications made by this LOMR at that time. <br /> <br />This determination is based on the flood data presently available. The enclosed documents provide additional information regarding this determination. If <br />you have any questions about this document, please conlact the FEMA Map Assislance Center toll free at 1-877-336-2677 (1-877-FEMA MAP) or by letter <br />addressed to the LOMR Depot, 3601 Eisenhower Avenue, Alexandria, VA 22304.
