P�g?2 of 5 Date: 7I27/2015 Case No : 15-05-5249A LOMA h��PA��tiI ��,�T Federal Emergency Management Agency �� Washington, D.C. 20472 qkU SE LETTER OF MAP AMENDMENT DETERMINATION DOCUMENT (REMOVAL) ATTACHMENT 1 (ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS) Structure Removal: The following considerations may or may not apply to the determination for your Structure: PORTIONS OF THE PROPERTY REMAIN IN THE FLOODWAY - A portion of this property is located within the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) regulatory floodway for the flooding source indicated on the Determination Document while the siabiect of this determin�tion �s not. The NFIP regulatory flcodway is the area that must remain unobstructed in order to prevent unacceptable increases in base flood elevations. Therefore, no construction may take place in a NFIP regulatory floodway that may cause an increase in the base flood elevation. The NFIP regulatory floodway is provided to the community as a tool to regulate floodplain development. Modifications to the NFIP regulatory floodway must be accepted by both the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the community involved. Appropriate community actions are defined in Paragraph 60.3(d) of the NFIP regulations. Any proposed revision to the NFIP regulatory floodway must be submitted to FEMA by community officials. The community should contact either the Regional Director (for those communities in Regions I-IV), or the Regional Engineer (Region V) for guidance on the data which must be submitted for a revision to the NFIP regulatory floodway. PORTIONS OF THE PROPERTY REMAIN IN THE SFHA -This Determination Document has removed the subject of the determination from the Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA). However, portions of the property may remain in the SFHA. Therefore, any future construction or substantial improvement on the property remains subject to Federal, State/Commonwealth, and local regulations for floodplain management. STUDY UNDERWAY - This determination is based on the flood data presently available. However, the Federal Emergency Management Agency is currently revising the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) map for the community. New flood data could be generated that may affect this property. When the new NFIP map is issued it will supersede this determination. The Federal requirement for the purchase of flood insurance will then be based on the newly revised NFIP map. EXTRATERRITORIAL JURISDICTION - The subject of the determination is shown on the National Flood Insurance Program map as being IQcated in an Extraterritoria! Jurisdiction area for the community irdica;ed on the Determination Document. GREAT LAKES - The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has based this determination on elevation data which is published in the current Flood Insurance Study for the community. However, the elevations established in the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) reports on the Great Lakes are the best available data known to us. If in the future there are any subsequent map revisions to the National Flood Insurance Program map and the USACE reports remain the best available data known, FEMA will use those elevations for any such revisions. Consequently, all new structures or substantially improved structures should be above the elevation stated in the applicable USACE report(copy enclosed).
