<br /> <br />11I.lIlill~ <br /> <br />REGULATING DEVELOPMENT <br />THROUGH PERMITS <br /> <br />A. Administrative Procedures Overview <br />The following nine chapters correspond to the established pro- <br />cedures that need to be implemented by local officials when administer- <br />ing the National Flood Insurance Program and their floodplain <br />management programs, The nine categories are as follows: <br /> <br />- Regulating Development Through Permits <br />- Floodplain Alterations <br />- Acting On The Permit Application <br />, Variances <br />- Enforcement <br />- Record Keeping <br />- Map Revision And Updating <br />- Map Amendments <br />- Local Administrator - Summary of Responsibilities <br /> <br />When utilizing the procedures or guidelines set forth in the following <br />chapters, the local administrator should remember that only a small <br />degree of flexibility exists for their implementation, The procedures have <br />been developed. tested and improved over a period of fifteen years and <br />are a compilation of workabie actions both from FEMA's point of view <br />and from the experiences of state and local governments who ultimately <br />have implemented the NFIP and local floodplain management programs, <br />Chapter Three begins the explanation of procedures and describes a <br />permit system that communities can implement to regulate develop- <br />ment. Some communities may want to vary this system by rewriting cer, <br />tain requirements into existing permit systems, However, if this is done, <br />care must be taken that all requirements are met. <br /> <br />B.
