7.0 OTHER STUDIES <br /> FIRMS were previously published for the Towns of Granada and Wiley (References 21 <br /> and 22), the City of Lamar (Reference 23), and the unincorporated areas of Prowers <br /> County (Reference 24), and a Flood Insurance Study was published for the City of Lamar <br /> (Reference 25). Information shown on those maps and study, where still applicable, are <br /> in exact agreement with this FIRM and FIS. This FIRM and FIS compiles and partially <br /> supersedes the previously published FIRMS and FIS, and the technical data referenced <br /> therein, with new technical data as described in Sections 2 and 3 of this FIS. <br /> A U.S. Army Corps of Engineers report (Reference 1) was used to determine peak flows <br /> at the City of Lamar. <br /> "Special Flood-Hazard Information, Arkansas River and Tributaries, Great Bend, Kansas <br /> to John Martin Dam, Colorado," was prepared by the Albuquerque District, Corps of <br /> Engineers, dated June 1974, (Reference 26). This study was designated by the Colorado <br /> Water Conservation Board on February 26, 1975. <br /> A Flood Hazard Boundary Map (FHBM) was published for Prowers County (Reference <br /> 27). The FHBM was later converted to a FIRM by means of a letter. In some areas <br /> information shown on this FIRM has been superseded due to the more detailed analyses <br /> performed for these areas. <br /> An FHBM was published for the Town of Granada(Reference 28). This FHBM was later <br /> superseded by a FIRM. In some areas information shown on this FIRM has been <br /> superseded due to the more detailed analyses performed for these areas. <br /> An FHBM was published for the Town of Holly (Reference 29). This FHBM was later <br /> rescinded by FEMA. <br /> An FHBM was published for the City of Lamar (Reference 30). This FHBM was later <br /> superseded by a Flood Boundary and Floodway Map (FBFM) (Reference 31) and a <br /> FIRM. In some areas the previously updated information has been superseded due to the <br /> more detailed analyses performed for these areas. <br /> This report either supersedes or is compatible with all previous studies published on <br /> streams studied in this report and should be considered authoritative for the purposes of <br /> the NFIP. <br /> 8.0 LOCATION OF DATA <br /> Information concerning the pertinent data used in the preparation of this study can be <br /> obtained by contacting FEMA, Mitigation Division, Denver Federal Center, Building <br /> 710, P.O.
