Objectives
Objectives
• To provide an overview of Oswego County’s flood hazard mapping project status
• To promote community engagement and enhance capability to effectively manage flood risk
5
Map Modernization (MapMod) Program Overview Prior to 2003, more than 70 percent of the nation’s
flood maps were at least 10 years old. In Oswego County, with few exceptions, the communities' flood maps dated back to the 1980s
Congress appropriated funds in 2003 and directed FEMA to develop and implement the MapMod program, which:
• Created county-wide digital maps
• Utilized more current data to update maps
• Developed a new platform to convert from paper to digital format
6
Oswego County MapMod Update Scope of Oswego County study
• County-wide DFIRM (168 panels), including 34 incorporated communities
• Re-delineation of 173 miles of detailed studies (Rivers & Lakes) Re-delineation: Previously identified floodplains and associated detailed flood elevations paired with
updated topographic data (LIDAR) that retains the integrity of the existing Engineering analysis
• Analysis of 960 approximate stream miles Approximate Stream: Hydrology was performed using NED dataset and 2006 USGS regression
equations. Hydraulics analysis and mapping was performed using LiDAR data and HECRAS Models.
• The DFIRM and FIS report will be produced in the
FEMA Countywide format in the
North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88) NAVD 88 = NGVD 29 – 0.55 feet
• Preliminary DFIRM delivery scheduled for February 11, 2011

Oswego County-wide Paneling Scheme
• Some of the communities that did not have mapsmight get new maps with special flood hazard zones• Some of the communities may be covered with more than one panel•Paneling scheme createdfrom 1:24,000 USGS quads

On February 11, 2011 each community will be receiving: Preliminary Flood Insurance Study (FIS) report Preliminary Paper Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs) DVD containing digital FIRM & FIS & fact-sheet and
geographic information system (GIS) data: GIS viewer and preliminary shapefiles
Roles & Responsibilities of Local CommunitiesRoles & Responsibilities of Local Communities:: Review & Comment on these preliminary FIRMs & FIS – due
end of March FEMA & NYSDEC will be conducting CCO meetings early
spring Flood Risk communications with residents
