They should not be construed to mean

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 proposed elevations are used to

Procedural Background
On June 30, 2001, LSC initiated a
Negotiated Rulemaking and appointed a
Working Group comprised of
representatives of LSC (including the
Office of Inspector General), the
National Legal Aid and Defenders
Association, the Center for Law and
Social Policy, the American Bar
Association’s Standing Committee on
Legal Aid and Indigent Defendants and
a number of individual LSC recipient
programs. The Negotiated Rulemaking
Working Group met three times
throughout 2002 and developed a Draft
Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM)
which was the basis for the NPRM
published by LSC on November 22,
2002 proposing significant revisions to
to Part 1611 (67 FR 70376). LSC
received 15 comments on that NPRM.
Except as specifically noted in the
Section-by-Section analysis below, the
comments LSC received either
affirmatively supported or raised no
objection to the proposals in the
November 2002 NPRM.1
Upon receipt of the comments, LSC
staff prepared a Draft Final Rule
discussing the comments and making
permanent the proposed revisions.

Rulemaking Working Group, see 67 FR 70376
(November 22, 2002).
