Robert,
Its been my experience that a CLOMR does not have an expiration date if the FIRM mapping that it is
based on does not change. From the preliminary Denton County FIRM update I don't see that our CLOMR
would change. (Denton and Dallas County appeal periods closed on February 13, 2009 and these
counties may require their DFIRMs to be reissued as revised preliminary maps and will probably be
delayed further due to resolution of appeals and protests that have been submitted to FEMA.)
On other projects, I have also processed only partial LOMR's based on a previous FEMA CLOMR and
processed a second LOMR when the second portion of the project was completed. A 404 permit with the
Corps of Engineers does have an expiration date but this project has no jurisdictional Waters of the US
that are being impacted. I am not aware that the FEMA rules have changed. Please call/email with any
questions or clarifications.
Thanks,
Mike Boyd, P.E.

Dan and Raj,
I know that you told me you did not want to do any work related to the CLOMR
at this time. DiWanna called me and asked me to be sure that this was the
case. She wanted me to emphasize that the CLOMR is only good for 2 years
and that if it expires all necessary data will have to be resubmitted to the
Corps of Engineers. There is the possibility that the rules could be
changed and that the CLOMR might not be granted in the future. If you wish
to complete the work for the CLOMR, several large trees along the bank of
Denton Creek will have to be removed. Apparently the City feels that it
makes sense to do all of the dirt work now.
Please let me know how you would like for us to proceed.

Robert,
I have a couple of questions for you. Are you following the CLOMR? It
most likely will be easier for you to follow the CLOMR regarding the
grading, etc.

DiWanna,
Thanks for the clarification. We still do not want to do the CLOMR at this time. We will do that work
when we move forward with the Office Building.
Thanks for all your help. What is left to do before we can pickup the grading permit? We are very
eager to get started as we have a very firm move-in date for the Akula's into their new home and the
clock is running against us.
Thanks,
Dan

Dan,
The deadline is a FEMA deadline, not the City of Coppell. The date on the CLOMR is May 2008 and the expiration
date is May 2010 (2 years). If the work is not completed, then you will need to redo the entire process with FEMA.
Sincerely,
DiWanna

Robert,
You are correct. We do not want to do the CLOMR at this time. We understand about the time limit of 2 years after
City approval.
It is fully the intention of the Akula's to start the Commercial project in mid to late 2010, so the 2 year time limit should
not come into play.
Thanks,
Dan
