IN REPLY REFER TO: APPEAL RES
RECEIVED
JUL 0 7 2021
WELD COUNTY
COMMISSIONERS
Community: Weld County, Colorado
(Unincorporated Areas)
Community No.: 080266
This is in response to a letter dated May 24, 2021 from Diana Aungst, Weld County Planner
appealing the proposed Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) boundary for Cache La Poudre River as
presented on the Preliminary Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) and in the Preliminary Flood
Insurance Study (FIS) report for the Weld County, CO and Incorporated Areas, dated September 17,
2020. Please note that your request is considered an appeal because it satisfied the data requirements
defined in Title 44, Chapter I, Part 67 of the Code of Federal Regulations (44 CFR Part 67), and was
submitted during the 90 -day appeal period for the aforementioned Preliminary FIRM and FIS report.
The following scientific and/or technical data were submitted in support of this request:
• Letter with an annotated FIRM, recorded plat, metes & bounds exhibit, and a survey
exhibit regarding the property at 32165 County Road 15
We received all data necessary to resolve this appeal by May 24, 2021.
FEMA has completed their evaluation of the comments and data provided in the submission. It
was determined that a change to the model was not warranted for the preliminary study. When
more detailed and/or accurate topographic data is submitted on its own, it must be proven that it
was available for use in the study prior to the release of the preliminary maps. However, the
building may qualify for removal from the Special Flood Hazard Area using the Letter of Map
Amendment (LOMA) process or the Letter of Map Revision Based on Fill (LOMR-F) process.
The LOMA/LOMR-F process is available through FEMA to issue flood zone determinations for
small areas that are not shown on a FIRM due to map scale limitations.
Enclosed is information about the LOMA and LOMR-F process and how to submit an application.
Once submitted, FEMA will review the information and make a determination if the building's
Lowest Adjacent Grade is above the Base Flood Elevation.

FEMA can only issue LOMA and LOMR-F determinations based on an effective map and study.
Because the above -referenced preliminary FIRM is not yet effective, an official determination
document cannot be issued until the FIRM has been finalized and is effective, which is anticipated
in late 2022. LOMA and LOMR-F applications that are submitted 30 days prior to the effective
date can be reviewed based on the new FIRM and issued shortly after the effective date. As they
become available, the new FIRM effective date and relevant updates will be provided here:
https://msc.fema.gov.
We have resolved this appeal in accordance with the requirements of 44 CFR Part 67. We have
reviewed the submitted data and determined that the proposed SFHA boundary in the area of
32165 County Road 15 is correct as shown on the Preliminary FIRM and in the Preliminary FIS
report, and that no changes are warranted at this time. Please submit any comments regarding this
appeal resolution within 30 days of the date of this letter to the following address:

Attention: Christine Gaynes, FEMA Region VIII Civil Engineer
If you feel that the technical issues originally raised have not been adequately addressed by this
resolution letter and that an acceptable resolution will not be feasible through the submittal of
additional comments as outlined above, please note that FEMA makes Scientific Resolution Panels
(SRPs) available to support the appeal resolution process. SRPs are independent panels of experts
in hydrology, hydraulics, and other pertinent sciences established to review conflicting scientific
and technical data and provide recommendations for resolution. An SRP is an option after FEMA
and a local community have been engaged in a collaborative consultation process without a mutually
acceptable resolution.
Your community may contact Christine Gaynes at 303-235-4359 for additional information on the
specific eligibility requirements for the SRP or refer to the enclosed SRP Fact Sheet. To request that
an SRP review your scientific or technical data, your community must complete the enclosed SRP
Request Form and submit it to the address above within 30 days of the date of this letter.
If we do not receive any comments or the completed SRP Request Form from your community
during the 30 -day review period associated with this resolution, we will finalize the FIRM and FIS
report by issuing a Letter of Final Determination (LFD). The LFD will explain the
adoption/compliance process and will state the date when the FIRM and FIS report will become
effective.
www.fema.gov
We appreciate your community's comments and commitment to having the most accurate flood
hazard information available reflected on the FIRM and in the FIS report. If you have any questions
regarding this matter, please contact Christine Gaynes of my office by telephone at 303-235-4359
or by e-mail at christine.gaynes@fema.dhs.gov.

How to Request a Letter of
Map Amendment (COMA)
or Letter of Map Revision
Based on Fill (LOMR F)
What is a LOMA or a LOMR-F?
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) applies rigorous standards
to develop Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs) and uses the most accurate
hazard information available. However, limitations in the scale or topographic
detail of the source maps used to prepare a FIRM may cause small elevated areas
to be included in a Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) . SFHAs are high -risk areas
subject to inundation by the base (1 -percent -annual -chance) flood. They are
also known as 1 -percent -annual -chance floodplains, base floodplains, or 100 -
year floodplains.
To change the flood hazard designation for properties in these areas, FEMA has
established the LOMA process for properties on naturally high ground and the
LOMR-F process for properties elevated by the placement of fill. LOMAs and
LOMR-Fs are letter determinations that officially amend an effective FIRM. They
can establish that a property is not in an SFHA and, by doing so, remove the
Federal flood insurance requirement.
Obtaining a LOMA or LOMR-F
F
A LOMA application form can be downloaded from the FEMA website at
www.felna.gov/change-flood-zone-designation-online-letter-map-change.
FEMA does not charge a fee to review a LOMA request, but requesters are
responsible for providing the required mapping and survey information
specific to their property. For FEMA to remove a structure from the SFHA
through the LOMA process, Federal regulations require the lowest ground
touching the structure, or Lowest Adjacent Grade (LAG) elevation, to be at or
above the Base Flood Elevation (BFE) .
The exception to this requirement is when the submitted property information
shows that the structure is outside the SFHA. In this case, the property is
referred to as "out as shown." If elevation information is required for the
LOMA request, the requester should submit the elevation data requested on the
MT-EZ form(https://www.fema.govimt-ez-form-instructions).

An Elevation Certificate, which includes this required
elevation data, may be submitted to meet this data
requirement and may be available from the community in lieu
of a new survey.
If the property has been elevated by fill, the requester will
need to use the LOMR-F process. Applications may be
submitted online at https://hazards.fema.gov/femaportal/
onlinelomc/signin, or mail -in forms are available at http://
www.fema.gov/change-flood-zone-designation-online-
letter-map-change. For a LOMR-F to be issued, the LAG
must be at or above the BFE, and community floodplain
officials must determine that the land and any existing or
proposed structures to be removed from the SFHA are
CC
reasonably safe from flooding." FEMA charges a fee for
the engineering review of LOMR-Fs. Fee information is
located at https://www.fema.gov/flood-map-related-fees.
Please send completed application forms to the attention
of the LOMA Manager at the LOMC Clearinghouse, 3601
Eisenhower Ave., Ste. 500, Alexandria, VA 22304-6426.
What if no BFEs have been Determined?
In some instances, BFEs for a certain SFHA have not yet
been determined. FEMA will attempt to calculate the BFE
when a LOMA application is submitted for properties of
less than 50 lots or 5 acres. Sometimes, a BFE can be
developed from sources such as U.S. Geological Survey
topographic quadrangle maps. If that information is not
available, the property owner will be asked to supply a
survey for the property with the information necessary to
allow FEMA to develop a site -specific BFE. National Flood
Insurance Program (NFIP) regulations require that the
requester determine the BFEs for properties larger than 50
lots or 5 acres. A variety of computational methods can be
employed to determine BFEs, but these methods can be
expensive. Before computational methods are used, every
attempt should be made to obtain information, in the form
of floodplain studies or previous computations, from
Federal, State, or local agencies. Data obtained from these
agencies may be adequate to determine BFEs with little or
no additional research, calculation, or cost.
The FEMA document Managing Floodplain Development
in Approximate Zone A Areas, A Guide for Obtaining and
Developing Base (100 -Year) Flood Elevations provides
guidance on computing BFEs. This document, which can
be viewed on the FEMA website at https://www.felna.gov/
' - ' rary/assets/documents/1911, provides methods
for developing BFEs, as well as a list of agencies that can be
contacted to determine whether BFE data are already
available.
How will a LOMA or LOMR-F Affect my Flood
Insurance Requirement?
The Federal flood insurance requirement applies to
structures in SFHAs that carry a mortgage backed by a
federally regulated lender or servicer. If you have a LOMA
or LOMR-F proving that your property is not in the SFHA,
the mandatory Federal flood insurance requirement no
longer applies. However, your lender still has the
prerogative to require flood insurance as a condition of the
loan. Even if your lender requires flood insurance, however,
premiums are lower for structures outside the SFHA.
If FEMA issues a LOMA or LOMR-F and your lender
agrees to waive the flood insurance requirement, you may
be entitled to a refund of the premium paid for the current
policy year. To cancel your policy, you can submit a copy
of the LOMA or LOMR-F and the lender's waiver to your
flood insurance agent or broker. The agent will send these
documents and a completed cancellation form to the
appropriate insurance provider.
It is important to note that the issuance of a LOMA or
LOMR-F does not mean the risk of flooding has been
eliminated. Therefore, not having a flood insurance policy
could have disastrous consequences, leaving you with no
financial protection from future flood losses. FEMA
recommends flood insurance coverage even if it is not
required by law or a lender. The good news is that you may
be eligible to pay much less for flood insurance coverage if
your property is removed from the SFHA.
Quick Facts
LOMA requests involving one or more structures: the
LAG must be at or above the BFE.
LOMR-F requests: the LAG must be at or above the
BFE, and community floodplain officials must
determine that the land and any existing or proposed
structures to be removed from the SFHA are
CC
reasonably safe from flooding."
LOMA requests involving one or more lots: the lowest
point on each lot must be at or above the BFE.
Review and processing fee: FEMA does not charge a fee
to review a LOMA request, but there is a fee for
the engineering review of LOMR-Fs.
Required information: the requester is responsible for
providing all the information needed for the review,
including (if necessary) elevation information
certified by a licensed land surveyor or registered
professional engineer.
RiskMAP
Increasing Resilience Together
http://www.fema.gov/risk-mapping-assessment-and-planning-risk-map • 1-877-FEMA MAP
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), through
its flood hazard mapping program, Risk MAP (Risk Mapping,
Assessment, and Planning), identifies flood hazards, assesses
flood risks, and partners with states, tribes and local
communities to provide accurate flood hazard and risk data to
guide them in taking effective mitigation actions. The resulting
National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) maps provide the
basis for community floodplain management regulations and
flood insurance requirements.
What is a Scientific Resolution Panel?
FEMA's Scientific Resolution Panel (SRP) process reinforces
FEMA's commitment to work with communities to ensure the
flood hazard data depicted on Flood Insurance Rate Maps
(FIRMs) are developed collaboratively, using the best science
available.
Flood hazards are constantly changing, and FEMA updates
FIRMs through several methods to reflect those changes. When
proposed changes to a FIRM are met with conflicting technical
and/or scientific data during a regulatory appeal period, an
independent third -party review of the information may be
appropriate. An SRP serves as an independent third party.
The SRP process benefits both FEMA and the community:
► It offers a neutral review process by independent third parties.
► It confirms FEMA's commitment to using the best science for
the purpose of accurately depicting flood hazards on flood
maps.
► It provides an additional opportunity for resolving community
appeals involving conflicting technical and/or scientific data.
While FEMA had previously established an SRP process, the
Biggert-Waters Flood Insurance Reform Act of 2012 formally
established a statutory SRP process. The Appeal and Comment
Processing Guidance for Flood Risk Analysis and Mapping,
which incorporates the legislative requirements for the SRP, is
available at www.fema.gov/guidelines-and-standards-flood-risk-
analysis-and-mapping.

RISK MAPPING, ASSESSMENT, AND PLANNING PROGRAM (RISK MAP)
The Federal Emergency Management Agency's Risk MAP Program delivers quality data that increases public awareness and leads to
action to reduce risk to life and property. Risk MAP is a nationwide program that works in collaboration with states, tribes, and local
communities using best available science, rigorously vetted standards, and expert analysis to identify risk and promote mitigation
action, resulting in safer, more resilient communities.

Who Can Request an SRP?
A community, tribe, or other political entity with the authority to adopt and enforce floodplain ordinances for the
area under its jurisdiction can request that FEMA use an SRP when conflicting technical and/or scientific data
have been presented. For additional information, review the Appeal and Comment Processing Guidance for Flood
Risk Analysis and Mapping at www.fema.gov/guidelines-and-standards-flood-risk-analysis-and-mapping.
When Can Communities Request an SRP?
A community can request an SRP if the following requirements have been met:
/ It has not yet received a Letter of Final Determination (LFD) from FEMA.
► Conflicting technical and/or scientific data, submitted during the 90 -day appeal period, resulted in different flood
hazards than those proposed by FEMA.
At least 60 days of community consultation with FEMA (but no more than 120 days) have taken place.
Additionally, a community that receives a FEMA-issued resolution letter and has not previously exercised the SRP
process will have 30 days from the issuance of the letter to request an SRP.
Independent Panel Sponsor
The SRP process is managed by the National Institute for Building Sciences (NIBS), a non-profit organization
independent of FEMA. NIBS will administer the SRPs, ensuring that proper guidelines and procedures are employed
and maintaining a cadre of experts from which panel members are selected.
Panel Member Selection
Five panelists are convened for each appeal brought to the SRP request. Panel members are technical experts in
surface water hydrology, hydraulics, coastal engineering, and other engineering and scientific fields that relate to the
creation of FIRMs and Flood Insurance Studies (HS) throughout the United States.
Based on the technical challenges associated with each request, NIBS develops a list of potential members with
relevant expertise, from its cadre of experts. NIBS also checks that those listed are available to serve, do not reside
in the state from which the appeal or data were filed, and have no personal or professional interest in its findings for
the flood risk project.
NIBS provides the list to the community and FEMA to select the panel members. The community selects at least the
simple majority (three), and FEMA selects the remaining panel members from the short list of cadre members,
based on the technical challenges of the appeal or data submittal.
2 June 2016
The Process
To request a review by an SRP, the community's Chief Executive Officer or designee completes an SRP Request
Form and submits it to FEMA during the time periods outlined above. Once FEMA confirms that the situation and the
conflicting technical and/or scientific data are eligible for an SRP, it forwards the SRP Request Form to NIBS, which
will initiate the panel selection process and develop a list of potential members.
Once the panel is convened, panel members are provided with a summary of the issue, FEMA's data, and the data
the community submitted during the 90 -day appeal period. Panel members review the data and, on a point -by -point
basis, deliberate and make a decision based on the scientific and/or technical challenges.
If the community feels it is necessary to make an oral presentation in support of its request, it must include a
justification on the SRP Request Form.
Resolution
The panel must present its written report to the community and FEMA within 90 days of being convened, and that
report will be used by the FEMA Administrator for making the final determination. A panel determination must be in
favor of either FEMA or the community on each distinct element of the dispute, and the panel may not offer any
alternative determination as a resolution. In the case of a dispute submitted by the community on behalf of an
owner or lessee of real property in the community, the panel determination must be in favor of either FEMA, the
community, or the owner/lessee on each distinct element of the dispute.
If changes to the maps are recommended in the panel's determination, and FEMA elects to implement the panel's
determination, FEMA will incorporate the changes into a revised Preliminary FIRM and, if appropriate, FIS report. The
revised products will be available to the community for review, with a resolution letter, before FEMA issues an LFD.
Once the SRP provides its determination and FEMA issues its resolution letter to implement the recommendations,
the SRP recommendations are binding on all appellants and not subject to judicial review.
If the FEMA Administrator elects not to accept the panel's findings, the Administrator will issue a written justification
within 60 days of receiving the report from the SRP. Under these circumstances, the appellants maintain their right
to appeal FEMA's final determination to the appropriate Federal District Court.

RE: Flood Mapping Appeal Request
32165 County Road 15
Windsor, Colorado
Dear Ms. Aungst,
We are writing to request your consideration of an appeal to the proposed remapping of floodplain at
32165 County Road 15 based on better data which we have provided. The property is located within
current effective FIRM Map No. 08123C1483E (Effective Date: 01-20-2016). Please see an annotated
copy of the current effective FIRM in Attachment 1.0.
We are providing this data because we believe, based on the data that we have collected, that the
existing house and accessory structure should not be placed in the proposed flood hazard zone as
shown in draft mapping available through the Weld County Property Portal. Please see Attachment 3.0.
The data that we have collected shows a portion of the property that would be placed in the new flood
zone is in fact above proposed base flood elevations. We have defined a metes and bounds area around
the existing home which is elevated above proposed Base (100 -year) Flood Elevation. Additionally, we
have surveyed adjacent grade and the floor elevation of the existing accessory structure, and found this
structure to be above proposed Base (100 -year) Flood Elevation.
We have provided the following data and information in support of this appeal request:
Attachment 1.0 —Annotated FIRM
Attachment 2.0 — Recorded Plat
Attachment 3.0 — Weld County Property Portal Data
Attachment 4.0 — Metes & Bounds Legal Description and Exhibit
