FEMA FIRM Letter of Map Revision - Wirfs

The City of Woodland, in accordance with National Flood Insurance Program regulation 65.7(b)(1), hereby gives notice of intent to revise the flood hazard information, generally located between the Lewis River Road roundabout and North Fork Elementary School. Specifically, the flood hazard information will be revised along the Lewis River from a point approx. River Mile 7.13 to a point approx. River Mile 8.6. As a result of this revision, the floodway will narrow or slightly shift and the 1% annual-chance water-surface elevations shall vary between an increase of 0.17 inch and a decrease of 0.21 inch within the area of revision. A “Regulatory Floodway” means the channel of a river or other watercourse and the adjacent land areas that must be reserved in order to discharge the base flood without cumulatively increasing the water surface elevation more than a designated height.
