This chapter's protection standard is the regulatory flood. The best available regulatory flood data is listed below. Whenever a party disagrees with the best available data, the party submitting the detailed engineering study needs to replace existing data with better data and submit it to the Indiana Department of Natural Resources for review and approval.
(A) The regulatory flood elevation, floodway, and fringe limits for the studied SFHAs of the town shall be as delineated on the 100-year flood profiles in the most current flood insurance study of Johnson County, Indiana, and incorporated areas, and the corresponding FIRM (to the extent that both exist) as well as any future updates, amendments, or revisions, prepared by the Federal Emergency Management Agency with the most recent date.
(B) The regulatory flood elevation for each SFHA of the town delineated as an “AO Zone” (in fringe), if any, shall be that elevation (or depth) as may be delineated on the most current FIRM of Johnson County, Indiana, and incorporated areas.
(C) The regulatory flood elevation, floodway, and fringe limits for each unstudied SFHA of town that may be delineated as an “A Zone” on the most current FIRM of Johnson County, Indiana, and Incorporated Areas shall be according to the best data available as provided by the Indiana Department of Natural Resources.
