D `° LETTER OF MAP REVISION DETERMINATION DOCUMENT (CONTINUED) COMMUNITY INFORMATION APPLICABLE NFIP REGULATIONS/COMMUNITY OBLIGATION We have made this determination pursuant to Section 206 of the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 (P.L. 93-234)and in accordance with the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968,as amended(Title XIII of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968, P.L.90-448), 42 U.S.C.4001-4128,and 44 CFR Part 65. Pursuant to Section 1361 of the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968,as amended, communities participating in the NFIP are required to adopt and enforce floodplain management regulations that meet or exceed NFIP criteria. These criteria, including adoption of the FIS report and FIRM,and the modifications made by this LOMR,are the minimum requirements for continued NFIP participation and do not supersede more stringent State/Commonwealth or local requirements to which the regulations apply. COMMUNITY REMINDERS We based this determination on the 1-percent-annual-chance flood discharges computed in the FIS for your community without considering subsequent changes in watershed characteristics that could increase flood discharges. Future development of projects upstream could cause increased flood discharges,which could cause increased flood hazards. A comprehensive restudy of your community's flood hazards would consider the cumulative effects of development on flood discharges subsequent to the publication of the FIS report for your community and could,therefore,establish greater flood hazards in this area. Your community must regulate all proposed floodplain development and ensure that any permits required by Federal or State/Commonwealth law have been obtained. State/Commonwealth or community officials,based on knowledge of local conditions and in the interest of safety,may set higher standards for construction or may limit development in floodplain areas. If your State/Commonwealth or community has adopted more restrictive or comprehensive floodplain management criteria,those criteria take precedence over the minimum NFIP requirements. We will not print and distribute this LOMR to primary users, such as local insurance agents or mortgage lenders; instead,the community will serve as a repository for the new data. We encourage you to disseminate the information in this LOMR by preparing a news release for publication in your community's newspaper that describes the revision and explains how your community will provide the data and help interpret the NFIP maps. In that way, interested persons,such as property owners, insurance agents,and mortgage lenders,can benefit from the information. This determination is based on the flood data presently available. The enclosed documents provide additional information regarding this determination.
