On November 7, 2012, FEMA published a proposed rulemaking at 77 FR 66785– 66788, proposing flood elevation determinations along one or more flooding sources in Lafayette Parish, Louisiana. FEMA is withdrawing the proposed rulemaking because FEMA has or will be issuing a Revised Preliminary Flood Insurance Rate Map, and if necessary a Flood Insurance Study report, featuring updated flood hazard information. A Notice of Proposed Flood Hazard Determinations will be published in the Federal Register and in the affected community’s local newspaper following issuance of the Revised Preliminary Flood Insurance Rate Map.

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. In the proposed rule published at 75 FR 62062–62063, in the October 7, 2010, issue of the Federal Register, FEMA published a table under the authority of 44 CFR 67.4.

provides corrections to the table as amended by the proposed rule
correction, to be used in lieu of the information published at 75 FR
62062-62063 and 79 FR 33878-33879. The table provided here represents
the flooding sources, location of referenced elevations, effective and
modified elevations, and communities affected for Clay County,
Arkansas, and Incorporated Areas. Specifically, it addresses the
following flooding sources: Cypress Creek Ditch and Sugar Creek and
Tributary 2.

DATES: Comments are to be submitted on or before September 8, 2015.

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments, identified by Docket No. FEMA-B-
1145, to Luis Rodriguez, Chief, Engineering Management Branch, Federal

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Luis Rodriguez, Chief, Engineering
Management Branch, Federal Insurance and Mitigation Administration,

20472, (202) 646-4064 or (email) Luis.Rodriguez3@fema.dhs.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Federal Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA) publishes proposed determinations of Base (1% annual-chance)
Flood Elevations (BFEs) and modified BFEs for communities 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.
In the proposed rule published at 75 FR 62062-62063, in the October
7, 2010, issue of the Federal Register, FEMA published a table under
the authority of 44 CFR 67.4. That table was amended by the proposed
rule correction published at 79 FR 33878-33879, in the June 13, 2014,
issue of the Federal Register. In this document, FEMA is publishing a
table containing the accurate information, to address previous
inaccuracies. The information provided below should be used in lieu of
that previously published.

Correction

This proposed rule provides corrections to the table as amended by
the proposed rule correction, to be used in lieu of the information
previously published. Correct the Clay County, Arkansas table as
follows.
