CONDITIONAL LOMR-F DETERMINATION
This document provides the Federal Emergency Management Agency's comment regarding a request for a Conditional Letter of Map Revision
based on Fill for the property described above. Using the information submitted and the effective National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP)
map, we have determined that the proposed described portion(s) of the property(ies) would not be located in the SFHA, an area inundated by
the flood having a 1-percent chance of being equaled or exceeded in any given year (base flood) if built as proposed. Our final determination
will be made upon receipt of a copy of this document, as-built elevations, and a completed Community Acknowledgement form. Proper
completion of this form certifies the subject property is reasonably safe from flooding in accordance with Part 65.5(a)(4) of our regulations.
Further guidance on determining if the subject property is reasonably safe from flooding may be found in FEMA Technical Bulletin 10-01. A
copy of this bulletin can be obtained by calling the FEMA Map Assistance Center toll free at (877) 336-2627 (877-FEMA MAP) or from our web
site at http://www.fema.gov/milltb1001.pdf. This document is not a final determination; it only provides our comment on the proposed project in
relation to the SFHA shown on the effective NFIP map.
This comment document is based on the flood data presently available. The enclosed documents provide additional information regarding this
request. If you have any questions about this document, please contact the FEMA Map Assistance Center toll free at (877) 336-2627 (877-FEMA
MAP) or by letter addressed to the Federal Emergency Management Agency, 3601 Eisenhower Avenue, Suite 130, Alexandria, VA 22304-6439.

PORTIONS OF THE PROPERTY REMAIN IN THE FLOODWA Y (This Additional Consideration applies to
the preceding 1 Property.)
A portion of this property is located within the Special Flood Hazard Area and the National Flood Insurance
Program (NFIP) regulatory floodway for the flooding source indicated on the Determination/Comment Document
while the subject of this determination is not. The NFIP regulatory floodway is the area that must remain
unobstructed in order to prevent unacceptable increases in base flood elevations. Therefore, no construction
may take place in an NFIP regulatory floodway that may cause an increase in the base flood elevation, and any
future construction or substantial improvement on the property remains subject to Federal, State/Commonwealth,
and local regulations for floodplain management. The NFIP regulatory floodway is provided to the community as
a tool to regulate floodplain development. Modifications to the NFIP regulatory floodway must be accepted by
both the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the community involved. Appropriate community
actions are defined in Paragraph 60.3(d) of the NFIP regulations. Any proposed revision to the NFIP regulatory
floodway must be submitted to FEMA by community officials. The community should contact either the Regional
Director (for those communities in Regions I-IV, and VI-X), or the Regional Engineer (for those communities in
Region V) for guidance on the data which must be submitted for a revision to the NFIP regulatory floodway.
Contact information for each regional office can be obtained by calling the FEMA Map Assistance Center toll free
at (877) 336-2627 (877 -FEMA MAP) or from our web site at http://www.fema.gov/aboutlregoff.htm.
CONDITIONAL LOMR-F DETERMINATION (This Additional Consideration applies to the
preceding 1 Property.)
Comments regarding this conditional request are based on the flood data presently available. Our final
determination will be made upon receipt of this Comment Document, certified as-built elevations and/or certified
as-built survey. Since this request is for a Conditional Letter of Map Revision based on Fill, we will also require
the applicable processing fee, and the "Community Acknowledgement" form. Please note that additional items
may be required before a final as-built determination is issued.
This letter does not relieve Federal agencies of the need to comply with Executive Order 11988 on Floodplain
Management in carrying out their responsibilities and providing Federally undertaken, financed, or assisted
construction and improvements, or in their regulating or licensing activities.
This attachment provides additional information regarding this request. If you have any questions about this attachment, please contact the
FEMA Map Assistance Center toll free at (877) 336-2627 (877-FEMA MAP) or by letter addressed to the Federal Emergency Management
Agency, 3601 Eisenhower Avenue, Suite 130, Alexandria, VA 22304-6439.

ATTACHMENT 1 (ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS)
STUDY UNDERWAY (This Additional Consideration applies to all properties in the CLOMR-F
COMMENT DOCUMENT)
This determination is based on the flood data presently available. However, the Federal Emergency
Management Agency is currently revising the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) map for the community.
New flood data could be generated that may affect this property. When the new NFIP map is issued it will
supersede this determination. The Federal requirement for the purchase of flood insurance will then be based on
the newly revised NFIP map.
This attachment provides additional information regarding this request. If you have any questions about this attachment, please contact the
FEMA Map Assistance Center toll free at (877) 336-2627 (877-FEMA MAP) or by letter addressed to the Federal Emergency Management
Agency, 3601 Eisenhower Avenue, Suite 130, Alexandria, VA 22304-6439.
