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 
                    ( print page 22552)
                    community may at any time enact stricter requirements of its own or pursuant to policies established by other 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 72 FR 68784, in the December 6, 2007, issue of the 
                    **Federal Register**
                    , FEMA published a table under the authority of 44 CFR 67.4. The table, entitled “Pierce County, Washington, and Incorporated Areas,” addressed the following flooding sources: Artondale Creek (main stem), Artondale Creek—East Branch, Artondale Creek—West Branch, Canyon Creek, Carbon River, Clarks Creek, Clarks Creek—Meeker Ditch, Clover Creek, Crescent Creek, Fennel Creek, Lacamas Creek, Mashel River, Morey Creek, Muck Creek, North Fork Clover Creek, North Fork Clover Creek Tributary #1, North Fork Clover Creek Tributary #2, North Fork Clover Creek Tributary #4, North Fork Clover Creek Tributary #5, Puyallup River, South Prairie Creek, Spanaway Creek, Swan Creek, Wapato Creek I, Wapato Creek II, and White River. That table contained inaccurate information as to the location of referenced elevation, effective and modified elevation in feet, and/or communities affected for the following flooding sources: Artondale Creek (main stem), Artondale Creek—East Branch, Artondale Creek—West Branch, Canyon Creek, Carbon River, Clarks Creek, Clarks Creek—Meeker Ditch, Clover Creek, Crescent Creek, Fennel Creek, Lacamas Creek, Mashel River, Morey Creek, North Fork Clover Creek, North Fork Clover Creek Tributary #1, North Fork Clover Creek Tributary #2, North Fork Clover Creek Tributary #4, North Fork Clover Creek Tributary #5, Puyallup River, South Prairie Creek, Spanaway Creek, Swan Creek, Wapato Creek I, Wapato Creek II, and White River. It also should not have included the flooding source Muck Creek. In addition, it did not include the following flooding sources: Carbon River (left overbank areas, without consideration of left levees), Carbon River Overflow, Clear Creek, Clover Creek (overflow at 134th Street South), Clover Creek (overflow at designated parkland), Clover Creek (overflow at golf course), Clover Creek (overflow near Lakewood Town Center), Crescent Lake, Diru Creek, Diru Creek (104th Street East overflow), Diru Creek (96th Street East overflow), East Fork Clear Creek, East Fork Clear Creek (west stem), Gig Harbor, Meeker Ditch, Puyallup River (overflow through golf course between State Route 162 and Puyallup River), Puyallup River (overflow through golf course to Hylebos Waterway), Puyallup River (overflows to Blair Waterway via numerous flow paths), Puyallup River (with consideration of levees), Puyallup River (without consideration of left levee), Puyallup River (without consideration of right levee), Rody Creek, West Fork Canyon Creek, Woodland Creek, Woodland Creek (80th Street East overflow), and Woodland Creek (96th Street East overflow). Specifically, the information published in the December 6, 2007, 
                    **Federal Register**
                     proposed rule for the Carbon River has been refined and divided into individual descriptions for Carbon River (left overbank areas, without consideration of left levees) and Carbon River Overflow; the information published in the December 6, 2007, 
                    **Federal Register**
                     proposed rule for the Puyallup River has been refined and divided into individual descriptions for Puyallup River (overflow through golf course between State Route 162 and Puyallup River), Puyallup River (overflow through golf course to Hylebos Waterway), Puyallup River (overflows to Blair Waterway via numerous flow paths), Puyallup River (with consideration of levees), Puyallup River (without consideration of left levee), and Puyallup River (without consideration of right levee); and the information published in the December 6, 2007, 
                    **Federal Register**
                     proposed rule for Clarks Creek and Clarks Creek—Meeker Ditch has been refined and divided into individual descriptions for Clarks Creek and Meeker Ditch. These individual descriptions provide a more detailed representation of changes than originally described for the flooding sources Carbon River, Clarks Creek, Meeker Ditch, and Puyallup River in the December 6, 2007, 
                    **Federal Register**
                     proposed rule. In this document, 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 Pierce County. Flooding source(s)
