      (4)   The following data and documentation:
         (a)   A document, certified by a registered professional engineer or architect, which states that the proposed construction or development has been adequately designed to withstand the pressures, velocities, impact, and uplift forces associated with the 100-year flood. Such statement shall include a description of the type and extent of flood-proofing measures which have been incorporated into the design of the structure and/or the development;
         (b)   Detailed information needed to determine compliance with §§ 152.063(F) and 152.064, including:
