SPECIAL FLOOD HAZARD AREAS INUNDATED

ZONE fJ{. No base flood elevations determ'ined.

ZONE AE Base flood elevations determined.

ZONE AH Flood depths of 1 to 3 feet (usually areas of
ponding); base flood elevations determined.

ZON E AO Flood depths of 1 to 3 feet (usually sheet
flow on sloying, terrain); average depths
determined. For areas of alluvial fan flood-
ing, velocities also determined.

ZONE A99 To be pr6.tected from 100-year flood by
Federal flood protection system under
construction; no base elevations determined.

ZONE V

Coastal flood with velocity hazard (wave
action); no base flood elevations deter-
mined.

ZONE VE Coastal flood with velocity hazard (wave
action); base flood elevations determined,

NOTES

This map is for use in administering the National Flood Insurance
Program; it does not necessarily identify all areas subject to flooding,
particularly from local drainage sources of small size, or all planimetric
features outside Special Floo'd Hazard Areas,

Areas of special flood hazard (lOO-year flo')d) include Zones A, AI,30,
AE. AH, AO, A99, V, VI-30 AND VE,

Certain areas not in Special Flood Hazard Areas may be protected-by
flood control structures.

Boundaries of the floodways were computed at cross sections and
interpolated between cross sections, :The floodways were based on
hydraulic considerations with regard 10 requirements of the Federal
Emergency Management Agency.
