BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT LEGALS FOR 12/5/23 MEETING - 10:00 A.M.
PUBLIC NOTICE
DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY
FEDERAL EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT AGENCY
Proposed Flood Hazard Determinations for Lake County, South Dakota and Incorporated Areas
The Department of Homeland Security’s Federal Emergency Management Agency has issued a preliminary Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM), and where applicable, Flood Insurance Study (FIS) report, reflecting proposed flood hazard determinations within Lake
County, South Dakota and Incorporated Areas. These flood hazard determinations may include the addition or modification of Base Flood Elevations, base flood depths, Special Flood Hazard Area boundaries or zone designations, or the regulatory floodway. Technical information or comments are solicited on the proposed flood hazard determinations shown on the preliminary FIRM and/
or FIS report for Lake County, South Dakota and Incorporated
Areas. 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. However, before these determinations are effective for floodplain management purposes, you will be provided
an opportunity to appeal the proposed information. For information on the statutory 90-day period provided for appeals, as
well as a complete listing of the communities affected and the
locations where copies of the FIRM are available for review,
please visit FEMA’s website here or call the FEMA Mapping
and Insurance eXchange (FMIX) toll free at 1-877-FEMA
MAP (1-877-336-2627).
