Changes in Flood Hazard 

Determinations 

AGENCY: Federal Emergency 

Management Agency, DHS. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: This notice lists communities 

where the addition or modification of 

Base Flood Elevations (BFEs), base flood 

depths, Special Flood Hazard Area 

(SFHA) boundaries or zone 

designations, or the regulatory floodway 

(hereinafter referred to as flood hazard 

determinations), as shown on the Flood 

Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs), and 

where applicable, in the supporting 

Flood Insurance Study (FIS) reports, 

prepared by the Federal Emergency 

Management Agency (FEMA) for each 

community, is appropriate because of 

new scientific or technical data. The 

FIRM, and where applicable, portions of 

the FIS report, have been revised to 

reflect these flood hazard 

determinations through issuance of a 

Letter of Map Revision (LOMR), in 

accordance with Title 44, Part 65 of the 

Code of Federal Regulations (44 CFR 

part 65). The LOMR will be used by 

insurance agents and others to calculate 

appropriate flood insurance premium 

rates for new buildings and the contents 

of those buildings. For rating purposes, 

the currently effective community 

number is shown in the table below and 

must be used for all new policies and 

renewals. 

DATES: These flood hazard 

determinations will become effective on 

the dates listed in the table below and 

revise the FIRM panels and FIS report 

in effect prior to this determination for 

the listed communities. 

From the date of the second 

publication of notification of these 

changes in a newspaper of local 

circulation, any person has 90 days in 

which to request through the 

community that the Deputy Associate 

Administrator for Mitigation reconsider 

the changes. The flood hazard 

determination information may be 

changed during the 90-day period. 

ADDRESSES: The affected communities 

are listed in the table below. Revised 

flood hazard information for each 

community is available for inspection at 

both the online location and the 

respective community map repository 

address listed in the table below. 

Additionally, the current effective FIRM 

and FIS report for each community are 

accessible online through the FEMA 

Map Service Center at 

www.msc.fema.gov for comparison. 

Submit comments and/or appeals to 

the Chief Executive Officer of the 

community as listed in the table below.
