SPRINGER:Before you continue, Mr. Moore, Mr. Darrow, I wonder if you
<br />could point out for us where the yellow lines that Mr. Moore were referring to are?
<br />Thank you.
<br />DARROW:In between each yellow line there appears to be somewhere in the,
<br />approximately five to six magenta lines, so it looks like its much more detailed. The
<br />blue is the property that were looking at.
<br />SPRINGER:Thank you.
<br />FANG:So after doing this detailed ground study topo, and I cut a lot more
<br />sections, you know, through this stream and I incorporated the original flood study data
<br />which I got from FEMA and incorporated my data input and did a modeling, such as
<br />modeling of this area. And then from there I, you know, I added in the fill that, the
<br />proposedfillthatsgoingtogointothepropertyandfoundoutthatthewatersurface
<br />elevation is not exceeding, its not above the original BFE, the Base Flood Elevation.
<br />And I submitted this, the whole document including supporting data to Public Works; and
<br />they reviewed it and, you know, they made their comments. I addressed, and then it was
<br />accepted by Public Works. Then this package is sent to FEMA for their verification.
<br />And in the package I also included a CD with my electronic data which, you know, prove
<br />to them that I did not just using typewriter to change the number; and in my printout, its,
<br />everything can be replicated with their own computer, with their software. So, and then,
<br />I think, two or three months later I received, you know, the letter saying, you know, they
<br />approved it. This is the KLOMAR-F, you know, F stands for fill; and County, you know,
<br />with this letter, I got their approval and I got Public Works approval.
<br />MOORE:And, again, just to reiterate the total flooding, this is water in this
<br />region, is part of the calculations within the flood fringe. So if there are any questions on
<br />the flood study? And then the KLOMAR, we can address that now. Then we can start
<br />talking about the localized drainage, and that little culvert, and the like, and start looking
<br />at these sites specific, what we call the drainage study.
<br />SPRINGER:Commissioners, you have any questions for the Applicants
<br />representatives at this time? Mr. Graham?
<br />GRAHAM:Im trying to get in concise form what we should take out of what
<br />you just told us. Seems to me that maybe what, what Im hearing youre saying is
<br />something to the effect that if were putting in the fill that we are proposing, we are not
<br />going to impact the movement down that major floodway. Is that correct? And is there
<br />something more that youre saying or -?
<br />FANG:Okay. When FEMA published this Base Flood Elevation, this is a
<br />calculated level. Its not really somebody go out there and, you know, during the peak of
<br />100 year storm and actually document that. Its a calculated number. And is it really
<br />going to be that high? Nobody really knows. But this is a baseline information and we
<br />compare our calculated number to that number, and say is it higher or lower. Because
