SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) publishes proposed determinations of Base (1% annual-chance) Flood Elevations (BFEs) and modified BFEs for communities participating in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP), in accordance with section 110 of the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, 42 U.S.C. 4104, and 44 CFR 67.4(a). These proposed BFEs and modified BFEs, together with the floodplain management criteria required by 44 CFR 60.3, are minimum requirements. They should not be construed to mean that the community must change any existing ordinances that are more stringent in their floodplain management requirements. The community may at any time enact stricter requirements of its own or pursuant to policies established by other 
                    ( print page 50444)
                    Federal, State, or regional entities. These proposed elevations are used to meet the floodplain management requirements of the NFIP and also are used to calculate the appropriate flood insurance premium rates for new buildings built after these elevations are made final, and for the contents in those buildings. Corrections In the proposed rule published at 73 FR 35112, in the June 20, 2008, issue of the 
                    **Federal Register**
                    , FEMA published a table under the authority of 44 CFR 67.4. The table, entitled “Plymouth County, Massachusetts, and Incorporated Areas” addressed the flooding source Atlantic Ocean. That table contained inaccurate information as to the location of referenced elevation, effective and modified elevation in feet, and/or communities affected for that flooding source. In addition, it did not include the following flooding sources: Aassawompsett Pond, Accord Brook, Bear Swamp, Doggett Brook, Fall Brook, French Stream, Great Quittacas Pond, Hathaway Pond, Hockomock River, Matfield River, Meadow Brook, Oldham Pond, Rocky Meadow Brook, Salisbury Plain River, Satucket River, Shumatuscacant River, Stream River, Third Herring Brook, Town River, Tributary A, Tributary to Meadow Brook, and Weweantic River. In the correction published at 73 FR 52234, in the September 9, 2008, issue of the 
                    **Federal Register**
                    , FEMA published a table entitled “Plymouth County, Massachusetts (All Jurisdictions)” containing information that addressed the flooding source Atlantic Ocean, to be used in lieu of that published on June 20, 2008. In the correction published at 74 FR 22151, in the May 12, 2009, issue of the 
                    **Federal Register**
                    , FEMA published a table entitled “Plymouth County, Massachusetts (All Jurisdictions)” containing information that addressed the flooding source Atlantic Ocean, to be used in lieu of that published on September 9, 2008. In this notice, FEMA is publishing a table containing the accurate information, to address these prior errors. The information provided below should be used in lieu of that previously published for Plymouth County, Massachusetts (All Jurisdictions). Flooding source(s)
