Proposed Flood Hazard Determinations

AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency, DHS.

ACTION: Notice; correction.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On December 23, 2013, the Federal Emergency Management Agency 
(FEMA) published in the Federal Register a proposed flood hazard

Bethany in the table titled ``Sussex County, Delaware, and Incorporated 
Areas''. FEMA is no longer proposing these flood hazard determination 
changes for the Town of South Bethany as identified in the above-
referenced publication.

DATES: Comments are to be submitted on or before April 15, 2015.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: FEMA proposes to make flood hazard 
determinations 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 flood hazard determinations, together with the 
floodplain management criteria required by 44 CFR 60.3, are the minimum 
that are required. 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 Federal, State, or regional entities. These flood 
hazard determinations are used to meet the floodplain management 
requirements of the NFIP and are also used to calculate the appropriate 
flood insurance premium rates for new buildings built after the FIRM 
and FIS report become effective.

Correction

    In the proposed flood hazard determination notice published at 78 
FR 77482, in the December 23, 2013, issue of the Federal Register, FEMA 
published a table titled ``Sussex County, Delaware, and Incorporated 
Areas''. This table included the Town of South Bethany as one of the 
communities for which flood hazard changes were being proposed. FEMA is 
no longer proposing these flood hazard determination changes for the 
Town of South Bethany as identified in the above-referenced 
publication.
