Public Notice Proposed Flood Hazard Determintations For Calaveras County
Calaveras County, CA...EMA Floodplain Administrator: Peter N Maurer, Planning Director, 891 Mountain Ranch Rd., San Andreas, CA 95249. The Calaveras County Planning Department hereby gives notice of the intent to revise the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s (FEMA’s) flood hazard determinations in Calaveras County and incorporated areas.
On January 20, 2017, FEMA will issue a Letter of Map Revision (LOMR) for 26 FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) Panels reflecting proposed flood hazard determinations within Calaveras County, California and Incorporated Areas. These revised flood hazard determinations may include the addition or modification of Base Flood Elevations, base flood depths, Special Flood Hazard Area boundaries and/or zone designations. The 1% annual chance flood water surface elevations may increase and/or decrease and/or be newly established. The 1% annual chance floodplain may widen and/or narrow and/or be newly established within the area of revision.
These flood hazard determinations are the basis for the floodplain management measures that your community is required to either adopt or show evidence of being already in effect in order to qualify or remain qualified for participation in the National Flood Insurance Program. Release of these maps triggers a statutory 90-day appeal period which begins January 20, 2017 and ends April 20, 2017. You must submit technical data and/or engineered studies in support of any appeals to the proposed flood hazard determinations shown on the LOMR FIRMs.
You may contact Debra Lewis, Planner III by calling 209-754-6782 or by emailing dlewis@co.calaveras.ca.us with any questions. Ask for a map of the FEMA Flood Zone on your parcel to be emailed to you. You may review the Flood Insurance Rate Maps at the Calaveras County Planning Department during normal working hours, 8:00 a. m. to 4:00 p. m., Monday through Friday except county holidays.
