<br />We will not physically revise and republish the FIRM and FIS report for your community to reflect the
<br />modifications made by this LOMR at this time. When changes to the previously cited FIRM panel(s) and

<br />knowledge of local conditions and in the interest of safety, may set higher standards for construction in the
<br />Special Flood Hazard Area. If the State, county, or community has adopted more restrictive or
<br />comprehensive floodplain management criteria, these criteria take precedence over the minimum NFIP
<br />criteria,
<br />
