eLOMA DETERMINATION
.
This document provides the Federal Emergency Management Agency's determination regarding a request for a Letter of Map Amendment for
the property described above. Using the information submitted and the effective National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) map, we have
determined that the structure(s) on the property(ies) is/are not 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). This document amends the effective NFIP map to remove the subject property from
the SFHA located on the effective NFIP map; therefore, the Federal mandatory flood insurance requirement does not apply. However, the
lender has the option to continue the flood insurance requirement to protect its financial risk on the loan. A Preferred Risk Policy (PRP) is
available for buildings located outside the SFHA. Information about the PRP and how one can apply is enclosed.
This determination is based on the flood data presently available. The enclosed documents provide additional information regarding this
determination. 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, Attn: BakerAECOM eLOMA Coordinator, 3601
Eisenhower Avenue, Alexandria, VA 22304, Fax: 703-751-7415.

DETERMINATION DOCUMENT (REMOVAL)
Structure Removal:
The following considerations mayor may not apply to the determination for your Structure:
\
PORTIONS OF THE PROPERTY REMAIN IN THE SFHA and/or FLOODWA Y - Portions of this property, but
not the subject of the Determination document, may remain in the Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) and/or the
regulatory f100dway for the flooding source indicated on the Determination Document. The NFIP regulatory
f100dway is the area that must remain unobstructed in order to prevent unacceptable increases in basefJood
elevations. Therefore, no construction may take place in an NFIP regulatory f100dway that may cause an increase
in the base flood elevation. Therefore, any future construction or substantial improvement on the property
remains subject to Federal, State/Commonwealth, and local regulations for floodplain management. The NFIP
regulatory flood way is provided to the community as a tool to regulate floodplain development. Modifications to
the NFJP regu'~tory fJoodway 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 f100dway 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 f1oodway. 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.Qov/aboutireQoff.htm.
STUDY UNDERWAY - This determination is based on the flood data presently available. However, the Federal
Emergency Management Agency may be 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.
EXTRATERRITORIAL JURISDICTION - The subject of the determination is shown on the National Flood
Insurance Program map and may be located in an Extraterritorial Jurisdiction area for the community indicated
on the Determination Document.
LEVEE - The subject property may be located in an area protected from the 1-percent annual chance flood
(base flood) by a levee or other structure subject to possible failure or overtopping by a flood larger than the
base flood.

Agency, Attn: BakerAECOM eLOMA Coordinator, 3601 Eisenhower Avenue. Alexandria. VA 22304. Fax: 703-751-7415.

GROUND SUBSIDENCE - The location of this request may be in an area subject to ground subsidence, the
lowering of the ground as a result of natural occurrences such as soil settlement, or artificial occurrences such as
the extraction of water or oil from the ground. While the elevations submitted with this request show the subject
property is currently above the Base Flood Elevation (BFE), the property may "subside" with the passage of time
to the extent that property elevations would be below the BFE and flood insurance may be required.
GREAT LAKES - The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has based this determination on
elevation data, which is published in the current Flood Insurance Study for the community. However, the
elevations established in the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) reports on the Great Lakes are the best
available data known to us. If in the future there are any subsequent map revisions to the national Flood
Insurance Program map and the USACE reports remain the best available data known, FEMA will use those
elevations for any such revisions. Further, be advised that the elevations on the Flood Insurance Rate Map
(FIRM) may only reflect the Stillwater elevation for the lake and may not account for the effects of wind driven
waves or wave run-up. On-site conditions such as wind speed, wind direction, fetch distance, water depth and
the slope of the beach or bluff may result in significant increases to the base flood elevation. Therefore, it is
strongly recommended that the requestor be aware of these circumstances and, if warranted, evaluate the
effects of wind driven waves along the shoreline of the property.
STATE AND LOCAL CONSIDERATIONS - Please note that this document does not override or supersede
any State or local procedural or substantive provisions which may apply to floodplain management requirements
associated with amendments to State or local floodplain zoning ordinances, maps, or State or local procedures
adopted under the National Flood Insurance Program.
COASTAL BARRIER RESOURCE SYSTEM - The subject of this determination may be located within the
Coastal Barrier Resource System (CBRS). Federal financial assistance, including Federal flood insurance, is
not available in CBRS areas for new construction or substantial improvements occurring after the date on which
tnearea was declared by Congress to be part ofihe CBRS or otherwise protected area as required by the
Coastal Barrier Resources Act (Public Law 97-348) and the Coastal Barrier Improvement Act 1990 (Public Law
101-591). This date is indicated on the National Flood Insurance Program map. For further information on this
property and the CBRS or otherwise protected area designation, contact the U.S. Department of the Interior.
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, Attn: BakerAECOM eLOMA Coordinator, 3601 Eisenhower Avenue. Alexandria. VA 22304. Fax: 703-751-7415.
