Mieden, P.E., <br />Project Manager, JR Engineering, LId" requested that FEMA revise the FIRM to show the effects of <br />construction of a detention facility and more detailed topographic information from just upstream of <br />Yosemite Road to the upstream limit of study along Willow Creek. This request follows up on a <br />Conditional Letter of Map Revision issued on April, 30, 1996. <br /> <br />All data required to complete our review of this request were submitted with letters from Mr. Mieden, <br /> <br />We have completed our review of the submitted data and the flood data shown on the effective FIRM, We <br />have revised the FIRM to modify the boundary delineations of the Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA), <br />the area that would be inundated by the flood having a I-percent chance of being equaled or exceeded in <br />any given year (base flood), along Willow Creek, As a result of the modifications, the width of the SFHA <br />for Willow Creek increased in some areas and decreased in other areas, The modifications are shown on <br />the enclosed annotated copy of FIRM panel(s) 0050 C. This Letter of Map Revision (LOMR) hereby <br />revises the above, referenced panel(s) of the effective FIRM dated September 30, 1987, <br /> <br />The modifications are effective as of the date shown above. The map panel(s) as listed above and as <br />modified by this letter will be used for all flood insurance policies and renewals issued for your community, <br /> <br />A review of the detennination made by this LOMR and any requests to alter this detennination should be <br />made within 30 days. Any request to alter the detennination must be based on scientific or technical data, <br /> <br />We will not physically revise and republish the FIRM and Flood Insurance Study (FIS) report for your <br />community to reflect the modifications made by this LOMR at this time, When changes to the previously <br />cited FIRM panel(s) and FIS report warrant physical revision and republication in the future, we will <br />incorporate the modifications made by this LOMR at that time, <br />
