NOTES TO USERS This map is for use in administering the National Flood Insurance Program. It does not necessarily identify all areas subject to flooding, particularly from local drainage sources of small size. The community map repository should be consulted for possible updated or additional flood hazard information. To obtain more detailed information in areas where Base Flood Elevations (BFEs) and/or floodways have been determined, users are encouraged to consult the Flood Profiles and Floodway Data and/or Summary of Stillwater Elevations tables contained within the Flood Insurance Study (FIS) Report that accompanies this FIRM. Users should be aware that BFEs shown on the FIRM represent rounded whole -foot elevations. These BFEs are intended for flood insurance rating purposes only and should not be used as the sole source of flood elevation information. Accordingly, flood elevation data presented in the FIS Report should be utilized in conjunction with the FIRM for purposes of construction and/or floodplain management. Certain areas not in Special Flood Hazard Areas may be protected by flood control structures. Refer to Section 2.4 "Flood Protection Measures" of the Flood Insurance Study Report for information on flood control structures for this jurisdiction. The projection used in the preparation of this map was Hawaii State Plane 1 Zone (PIPS zone 5101). The horizontal datum was NAD 83, GRS 1980 spheroid. Differences in datum, spheroid, projection or UTM zones used in the production of FIRMS for adjacent jurisdictions may result in slight positional differences in map features across jurisdiction boundaries. These differences do not affect the accuracy of this FIRM. Flood elevations on this map are referenced to the North American Vertical Datum of 1988. These flood elevations must be compared to structure and ground elevations referenced to the same vertical datum. For information regarding conversion between the National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929 and the North American Vertical Datum of 1988, visit the National Geodetic Survey website at http://www.ngs.noaa.gov or contact the National Geodetic Survey at the following address: NGS Information Services NOAA, N/NGS12 National Geodetic Survey SSMC -3, #9202 1315 East-West Highway Silver Spring, Maryland 20910-3282 (301) 713-3242 Base map information shown on this FIRM was derived from U.S. Geological Survey Digital Orthophoto Quadrangles produced at a scale of 1:12,000 from photography dated 1998 or later. This map reflects more detailed and up-to-date stream channel configurations than those shown on the previous FIRM for this jurisdiction. The floodplains and floodways that were transferred from the previous FIRM may have been adjusted to conform to these new stream channel configurations. As a result, the Flood Profiles and Floodway Data tables for multiple streams in the Flood Insurance Study Report (which contains authoritative hydraulic data) may reflect stream channel distances that differ from what is shown on this map. Corporate limits shown on this map are based on the best data available at the time of publication. Because changes due to annexations or de -annexations may have occurred after this map was published, map users should contact appropriate community officials to verify current corporate limit locations. Please refer to the separately printed Map Index for an overview map showing the layout of map panels for this jurisdiction. NOTICE TO MAP USERS FEMA maintains information about map features, such as street locations and names, in or near designated flood hazard areas. Requests to revise information in or near designated flood hazard areas may be provided to FEMA during the community review period or at the final Consultation Coordination Officer's meeting. Approved requests for changes will be shown on the final printed FIRM. 155 19° 31'52.5' 250000 FT ►zI.7�I�I�»� fifOX918111118I1 1760000 FT 1765000 FT 155° 09' 22.5" �? 31' 52.5" Tributary 2 LEGEND ®SPECIAL FLOOD HAZARD AREAS (SFHAs) SUBJECT TO INUNDATION BY THE 1% ANNUAL CHANCE FLOOD The 1% annual chance Flood (100 -year Flood), also known as the base Flood, is the Flood that has a 1% chance of being equaled or exceeded in any given year. The Special Flood Hazard Area is the area subject to Flooding by the 1% annual chance Flood. Areas of Special Flood Hazard include Zones A. AE, AH, AO, AR, A99, V. and VE. The Base Flood Elevation is the water -surface elevation of the 1% annual chance Flood. ZONEA No Base Flood Elevations determined. ZONEAE Base Flood Elevations determined. ZONE AH Flood depths of 1 to 3 feet (usually areas of ponding); Base Flood Elevations applications for the subject determined. ZONE AO Flood depths of 1 to 3 feet (usually sheet Flow on sloping terrain); average ZONE D depths determined. For areas of alluvial fan Flooding, velocities also determined. ZONE AR Special Flood Hazard Areas formerly protected from the 1% annual chance Flood by a Flood control system that was subsequently decertified. Zone AR indicates that the former Flood control system is being restored to provide protection from the 1% annual chance or greater Flood. ZONE A99 Area to be protected from 1% annual chance Flood by a Federal Flood protection system under construction; no Base Flood Elevations determined. ZONE V Coastal Flood zone with velocity hazard (wave action); no Base Flood Elevations determined. ZONE VE Coastal Flood zone with velocity hazard (wave action); Base Flood Elevations determined. FLOODWAY AREAS IN ZONE AE The Floodway is the channel of a stream plus any adjacent Floodplain areas that must be kept free of encroachment so that the 1% annual chance Flood can be carried without substantial increases in Flood heights. OTHER FLOOD AREAS ZONE X Areas of 0.2% annual chance Flood; areas of 1% annual chance Flood with 23 average depths of less than 1 foot or with drainage areas less than 1 square 45° 02'08", 93° 02' 12" mile; and areas protected by levees from 1% annual chance Flood. applications for the subject OTHER AREAS ZONE X Areas determined to be outside the 0.2% annual chance Floodplain.
