The goal of this map is to provide engineers, planners, and property owners with useful information regarding floodplains and drainage. The map collates federal and local floodplain maps in a single resource to enhance public awareness and understanding of flood-prone areas, potential flood risks, and associated hazards within a specific region. </SPAN></SPAN><SPAN /><SPAN><SPAN>There may be situations where:</SPAN></SPAN><SPAN /><SPAN><SPAN>FEMA says a property is outside the SFHA, but DPS still regulates work there because of: local studies, buffers, drainage criteria, or updated hydrology. </SPAN></SPAN><SPAN /><SPAN><SPAN>In these cases, DPS floodplains supersede FEMA floodplains. </SPAN></SPAN></P><P><SPAN><SPAN>DPS Floodplain Viewer: https://experience.arcgis.com/experience/e518764ec03c46e2b605f2c8d46688f9</SPAN></SPAN></P><P><SPAN><SPAN /></SPAN><SPAN /><SPAN><SPAN>For more information, contact: Josh Cole, Montgomery County Department of Permitting Services, MNCPPC </SPAN></SPAN><A href="Joshua.Cole@montgomerycountymd.gov" STYLE="text-decoration:underline;"><SPAN STYLE="text-decoration:underline;"><SPAN>Joshua.Cole@montgomerycountymd.gov</SPAN></SPAN></A><SPAN /></P><P><SPAN /></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |
