We reviewed the submitted data and the data used to prepare the effective flood hazard information for your <br /> community and determined that the proposed project meets the minimum floodplain management criteria of the NFIP. Your community is responsible for <br /> approving all floodplain development and for ensuring that all permits required by Federal or State/Commonwealth law have been received. State/Commonwealth, <br /> county,and community officials,based on their knowledge of local conditions and in the interest of safety,may set higher standards for construction in the Special <br /> Flood Hazard Area(SFHA),the area subject to inundation by the base flood. If the State/Commonwealth,county,or community has adopted more restrictive or <br /> comprehensive floodplain management criteria,these criteria take precedence over the minimum NFIP criteria. <br /> This comment is based on the flood data presently available.
