Directorate, Department of Homeland

ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: Modified Base (1% annual
chance) Flood Elevations (BFEs) are
finalized for the communities listed
below. These modified elevations will
be used to calculate flood insurance
premium rates for new buildings and
their contents.
DATES: Effective Dates: The effective
dates for these modified BFEs are
indicated on the following table and
revise the Flood Insurance Rate Map(s)
(FIRMs) in effect for each listed
community prior to this date.
ADDRESSES: The modified BFEs for each
community are available for inspection
at the office of the Chief Executive
Officer of each community. The
respective addresses are listed in the

below of modified BFEs for each
community listed. These modified
elevations have been published in
newspapers of local circulation and
ninety (90) days have elapsed since that
publication. The Mitigation Division
Director of the Emergency Preparedness
and Response Directorate has resolved
any appeals resulting from this
notification.
The modified BFEs are not listed for
each community in this notice.
However, this rule includes the address
of the Chief Executive Officer of the
community where the modified base
flood elevation determinations are
available for inspection.
The modifications are made pursuant
to Section 206 of the Flood Disaster
Protection Act of 1973, 42 U.S.C. 4105,
and are in accordance with the National
Flood Insurance Act of 1968, 42 U.S.C.
4001 et seq., and with 44 CFR Part 65.
For rating purposes, the currently
effective community number is shown
and must be used for all new policies
and renewals.
The modified BFEs are the basis for
the floodplain management measures
that the community is required to either
adopt or to show evidence of being
already in effect in order to qualify or
to remain qualified for participation in
the National Flood Insurance Program
(NFIP).
These modified elevations, 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 modified elevations 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 these elevations are
made final, and for the contents in these
buildings.
