participating in the National Flood
Insurance Program (NFIP), 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 BFEs and modified
BFEs, together with the floodplain
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 55469 in the September 25, 2008,
issue of the Federal Register, FEMA
published a table under the authority of
44 CFR 67.4. The table, entitled
‘‘Henderson County, Kentucky, and
Incorporated Areas’’ addressed the
following flooding sources: Canoe
Creek, Elam Ditch, Elam Ditch Tributary
1, Elam Ditch Tributary 2, Elam Ditch
Tributary 3, Kimsey Lane Left Tributary,
Kimsey Lane Right Tributary, Middle
Canoe Creek, North Fork Canoe Creek,
Sellers Ditch, Tiger Ditch (Formerly
Highway 812 Tributary), Tiger Ditch
Tributary 1 and Upper Canoe Creek.
That table contained inaccurate
information as to the location of
referenced elevation, effective and
modified elevation in feet, and/or
communities affected for those flooding
sources: In addition, it did not include
the following flooding sources: Canoe
Creek Tributary 1 (backwater effects
from Ohio River), Cash Creek
(backwater effects from Ohio River),
Elam Ditch Tributary 1.1 (backwater
effects from Elam Ditch Tributary 1),
Elam Ditch Tributary 4 (backwater
effects from Elam Ditch), Elam Ditch
Tributary 8 (backwater effects from
Elam Ditch), Grane Creek (backwater

Tributary 1 (backwater effects from Ohio
River), Grane Creek Tributary 5
(backwater effects from Ohio River),
Lick Creek (backwater effects from Ohio

Lick Creek Tributary 2.1 (backwater

In this document, the
Commission considers how the recently
enacted Local Community Radio Act
(‘‘LCRA’’) will impact future LPFM and
translator station licensing. Section 5 of
the Act requires the Commission to
ensure that: Licenses are available for
both LPFM and translator stations;

licensing decisions are based on
community needs; and translator and
LPFM stations remain equal in status.
The item tentatively finds that a
previously adopted cap on translator
applications is inconsistent with the
LCRA’s directives. It considers three
alternate processing schemes, and
tentatively concludes that a marketspecific processing policy would most
faithfully implement section 5’s
directives. The item sets forth proposed
LPFM channel floors for the top 150
markets, and proposes to dismiss all
translator applications in markets where
the number of available LPFM channels
is below the channel floor. The item
also considers whether the Commission
should take additional steps to prevent
the trafficking of translator construction
permits, and whether translators from
Auction No. 83 should be allowed to

Corrections
In the Proposed Rule published at 73 FR 55469 in the September 25,
2008, issue of the Federal Register, FEMA published a table under the
authority of 44 CFR 67.4. The table, entitled ``Henderson County,
Kentucky, and Incorporated Areas'' addressed the following flooding
sources: Canoe Creek, Elam Ditch, Elam Ditch Tributary 1, Elam Ditch
Tributary 2, Elam Ditch Tributary 3, Kimsey Lane Left Tributary, Kimsey
Lane Right Tributary, Middle Canoe Creek, North Fork Canoe Creek,
Sellers Ditch, Tiger Ditch (Formerly Highway 812 Tributary), Tiger
Ditch Tributary 1 and Upper Canoe Creek. That table contained
inaccurate information as to the location of referenced elevation,
effective and modified elevation in feet, and/or communities affected
for those flooding sources: In addition, it did not include the
following flooding sources: Canoe Creek Tributary 1 (backwater effects
from Ohio River), Cash Creek (backwater effects from Ohio River), Elam
Ditch Tributary 1.1 (backwater effects from Elam Ditch Tributary 1),
Elam Ditch Tributary 4 (backwater effects from Elam Ditch), Elam Ditch

River), Lick Creek (backwater effects from Ohio River), Lick Creek
Tributary 2 (backwater effects from Ohio River), Lick Creek Tributary
2.1 (backwater effects from Ohio River), Lick Creek Tributary 4
(backwater effects from Ohio River), Ohio River, Old Knoblick Road
Creek (backwater effects from Ohio River), Pond Creek (overflow effects
from Ohio River), Pond Creek Tributary 6 (overflow effects from Ohio
River), Race Creek (backwater effects from Ohio River), Sputzman Creek
(backwater effects from Ohio River), Sputzman Creek Tributary 1
(backwater effects from Ohio River), Sputzman Creek Tributary 2
(backwater effects from Ohio River), and Sugar Creek (backwater effects
