The CLOMR was approved and the dirtwork/floodplain reclamation process has been completed. The second and final step in this process is to apply to FEMA for a LOMB (Letter of Map Revision) which officially amends the floodplain map. The submittal package prepared by Goodwin and Marshall will include documentation of the final fill area volumes and the necessary HEC -RAS modelling reflecting the final conditions. Staff recommends approval.
