Proposed Flood Elevation Determinations; Correction
AGENCY:
Federal Emergency Management Agency, DHS.
ACTION:
Proposed rule; correction.
SUMMARY:
This document corrects the table to a proposed rule published in the Federal Register of November 2, 2007. This correction clarifies the table representing the flooding source(s), location of referenced elevation, the effective and modified elevation in feet and the communities affected for Tulsa County, Oklahoma, and Incorporated Areas; specifically, for flooding sources "Horsepen Creek Tributary B" and "Horsepen Creek Tributary B Tributary," that was previously published.
DATES:
Comments to be submitted on or before January 31, 2008.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
William R. Blanton, Jr., Engineering Management Branch, Mitigation Directorate, Federal Emergency Management Agency, 500 C Street, SW., Washington, DC 20472, (202) 646-2903.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) publishes proposed determinations of Base (1-percent-annual-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. E7-21595, beginning on page 62182 in the issue of November 2, 2007, make the following corrections, in the table published under the authority of 44 CFR 67.4. On page 62182, in § 67.4, in the table with center heading Tulsa County, Oklahoma, and Incorporated Areas, the flooding source(s), location of referenced elevation, the effective and modified elevation in feet and the communities affected for flooding source "Horsepen Creek Tributary B", needs to be corrected to read as follows:
| Flooding source(s) | Location of referenced elevation** | *Elevation in feet (NGVD) +Elevation in feet (NAVD) # Depth in feet above ground | Effective | Modified | Communities affected |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ******* | |||||
| Tulsa County, Oklahoma, and Incorporated Areas | |||||
| ****** | |||||
| Horsepen Creek Tributary B | Confluence with Horsepen Creek | None | +642 | Unincorporated Areas of Tulsa County. | |
| Approximately 370 ft upstream of confluence with Horsepen Creek Tributary B Tributary | None | +644 | |||
| Horsepen Creek Tributary B Tributary | Confluence with Horsepen Creek Tributary B | None | +643 | Unincorporated Areas of Tulsa County. | |
| Approximately 2800 ft upstream of confluence with Horsepen Creek Tributary B | None | +650 | |||
