The FEMA has published <br />several references to provide detailed criteria and design procedures for flood <br />proofing structures. These references are listed in the bibliography and <br />should be consulted for detailed design information. The more commonly used <br />flood proofing measures are discussed in Section III. <br /> <br />Any proposed structures located within the lOO-year flood fringe should either <br />have the lowest floor elevated to one (1) foot above the lOO-year floodway <br />water surface elevation or should be flood proofed to one foot above the <br />floodway elevation. Exceptions are to be reviewed by the City/County Flood <br />Plain Administrator. The lOO-year flood plain and corresponding elevations of <br />the lOO-year floodway can be determined by reviewing the Flood Hazard 80undary <br />Maps and Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRM) published by FEMA and available for <br />review in the City/County offices. <br /> <br />2.9 Maintenance <br /> <br />t <br /> <br />The City/County may assume the maintenance of surface and subsurface drainage <br />sys tems and eros i on contro 1 structures after a probat i onary two-year <br />maintenance period (by the developer) in connection with the subdivision of <br />land, if the following are met: <br /> <br />a.
