SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

In accordance with Section 1360(i) of the National Flood Insurance Reform Act of 1994, this Notice is provided to inform interested parties of changes made by FEMA to NFIP maps. The two listings provided show communities affected by map changes made by letter and communities affected by physical map changes. For each Letter of Map Change, the first listing provides the map panel(s) affected, effective (determination) date of the change, case number, and determination type. For each physical map change, the Map Revision listing provides the map panel(s) affected and the effective date of the change. The listing also identifies: (1) those panels on which the Special Flood Hazard Areas have not been changed or have been changed only to incorporate the Letters of Map Change issued before the effective date; and (2) those panels for which a Flood Insurance Rate Map is produced for the first time, resulting only in changes to flood insurance and floodplain management requirements in the affected community. Future notices of changes to NFIP maps will be published approximately every 6 months.

Two listings are provided below. The first listing includes all Letters of Map Change issued by FEMA from July 1 through December 31, 1999. The following types of letters are included in the listing:

The second listing includes map panels that FEMA physically revised and republished from July 1 through December 31, 1999. For those map panels on which the Special Flood Hazard Areas have not been changed or have been changed only to incorporate Letters of Map Change issued before the effective date, two asterisks(**) are shown to the right of the map panel number. For those map panels for which a Flood Insurance Rate Map is produced for the first time, resulting only in changes to flood insurance and floodplain management requirements in the affected community, three asterisks(***) are shown to the right of the map panel number.
