   (A)   The base flood elevation for the floodplains of Salt Creek and Salt Creek Tributary shall be as delineated on the 100-year flood profiles in the countywide Flood Insurance Study of DeWitt County prepared by the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
   (B)   The base flood elevation for each floodplain delineated as an AH Zone or AO Zone shall be that elevation (or depth) delineated on the countywide Flood Insurance Rate Map of DeWitt County and dated November 2, 2007.
   (C)   The base flood elevation for each of the remaining floodplains delineated as an A Zone on the countywide Flood Insurance Rate Map of DeWitt County shall be according to the best data available from federal, state or sources. Should no other data exist, the applicant must finance an engineering study to determine base flood elevations.
