SUMMARY: Proposed Flood Elevation Determinations; Correction,
SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) publishes proposed determinations of Base (1percentannual 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 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 proposed BFEs 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.
Correction
In proposed rule FR Doc. E717821, beginning on page 51762 in the
issue of September 11, 2007, make the following corrections, in the
table published under the authority of 44 CFR 67.4. On page 51764, in
Sec. 67.4, in the table with center heading Graham County, North
Carolina, and Incorporated Areas, the flooding source, location of
referenced elevation, the effective and modified elevation in feet and
the communities affected for flooding source ``Cochran Creek'', need to be corrected to read as follows:
* Elevation in feet
(NGVD) + Elevation in
feet (NAVD)
* * * * * * *
