Overview/Background
This LOMR is an update to Volume 2, Pages 112 - 113, of the Flood Insurance Study (FIS) report for Los Angeles County and Incorporated Areas, scheduled to become effective on September 26, 2008. The new FIS report only partially incorporated modifications made to the Summary of Discharges Table 7 by a LOMR dated May 20, 2005 (Case No. 04-09-0375P), which revised the Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHAs), the areas that would be inundated by the base (1-percent-annual-chance) flood, and the Summary of Discharges Table. This LOMR does not revise the SFHA boundaries and discharges from the May 20 LOMR along the revised reaches.
