participating in the National Flood
Insurance Program (NFIP), in
accordance with section 110 of the
Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Proposed Flood Elevation
Determinations
Federal Emergency
Management Agency, DHS.
ACTION: Proposed rule; correction.
AGENCY:
On November 24, 2008,
FEMA published in the Federal Register
a proposed rule that contained an
erroneous table. This notice provides
corrections to that table, to be used in
lieu of the information published at 73
SUMMARY:
Flooding source(s)
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
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 73
FR 70944, in the November 24, 2008,
issue of the Federal Register, FEMA
published a table under the authority of
44 CFR 67.4. The table, entitled ‘‘White
County, Arkansas, and Incorporated
Areas’’ addressed the flooding source
Deener Creek. That table contained
inaccurate information as to the location
of referenced elevation, effective and
modified elevation in feet, or
communities affected for that flooding
source. In addition, it did not include
the following flooding sources: Gum
Creek Flooding Effects, Little Red River,
Overflow Creek Tributary, Red Cut
Slough, Red Cut Slough Tributary, Red
Cut Slough Tributary 2, and Red Cut
Slough Tributary A. In this notice,
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.

In the proposed rule published at 73 FR 70944, in the November 24,
2008, issue of the Federal Register, FEMA published a table under the
authority of 44 CFR 67.4. The table, entitled ``White County, Arkansas,

That table contained inaccurate information as to the location of
referenced elevation, effective and modified elevation in feet, or
communities affected for that flooding source. In addition, it did not
include the following flooding sources: Gum Creek Flooding Effects,
Little Red River, Overflow Creek Tributary, Red Cut Slough, Red Cut
Slough Tributary, Red Cut Slough Tributary 2, and Red Cut Slough
Tributary A. In this notice, FEMA is publishing a table containing the
