The degree of flood protection required by this chapter is considered reasonable for regulatory purposes and is based on scientific and engineering considerations. Larger floods can and will occur on rare occasions. Flood heights may be increased by man-made or natural causes. This chapter does not imply that land outside the special flood hazard areas or uses permitted within such areas will be free from flooding or flood damages. This chapter shall not create liability on the part of Casa Grande, the state of Arizona, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, the Federal Insurance Administration, or any officer or employer thereof, for any flood damages that result from reliance on this chapter or an administrative decision lawfully made hereunder.
