does not necessarily identify all areas subject to flooding, particularly from local
drainage sources of small size. The community map repository should be

This map reflects more detailed and up- to- date stream channel configurations

and floodways that were transferred from the previous FIRM may have been
adjusted to conform to these new stream channel configurations. As a
result, the Flood Profiles and Floodway Data tables in the Flood Insurance

The projection used in the preparation of this map was
Pennsylvania State
Plane south zone (FIPSZONE 3702). The
horizontal datum was NAD83,
GRS1980 spheroid. Differences in datum, spheroid, projection or State Plane
zones used in the production of FIRMs for adjacent jurisdictions may result in
slight positional differences in map features across jurisdiction boundaries.
These differences do not affect the accuracy of the FIRM.

Boundaries of the floodways were computed at cross sections and interpolated
between cross sections. The floodways were based on hydraulic considerations
with regard to requirements of the National Flood Insurance Program. Floodway
widths and other pertinent floodway data are provided in the Flood Insurance
Study report for this jurisdiction.
Certain areas not in Special Flood Hazard Areas may be protected by flood
control structures.
Refer to Section 2.4 "Flood Protection Measures" of
the Flood Insurance Study report for information on flood control structures

To obtain more detailed information in areas where Base Flood Elevations
(BFEs) and/or floodways have been determined, users are encouraged to consult
the Flood Profiles and Floodway Data and/or Summary of Stillwater Elevations
tables contained within the Flood Insurance Study (FIS) report that accompanies
this FIRM. Users should be aware that BFEs shown on the FIRM represent
rounded whole- foot elevations. These BFEs are intended for flood insurance
rating purposes only and should not be used as the sole source of flood

for this jurisdiction. Elevations shown in the Summary of Stillwater Elevations
