2. The manuals include information on engineering principles, construction methods, <br />costs and suggestions for how techniques can be financed and implemented. Other-Federal <br />agencies such as, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and Soil Conservation Service also provide <br />similar services. The North Carolina Division of Emergency Management works in concert with <br />these various Federal agencies to ensure that the State and local governments are prepared to <br />respond to natural disasters. A major effort to improve technical information available to local <br />governments is being undertaken by the State of North Carolina and the Federal Emergency <br />Management Agency. <br /> <br />T. Statewide Floodplain Mapping Initiative <br /> <br /> 1. The State of North Carolina, through the Federal Emergency Management Agency's <br />Cooperating Technical Community partnership initiative, has been designated as a Cooperating <br />Technical State (CTS). As a CTS, the State will assume primary ownership and responsibility for <br />Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs) for all North Carolina communities. This project will <br />include conducting flood hazard analysis and producing updated, digital FIRMs (DFIRMs). <br /> <br /> 2. The updated flood hazard data will provide current, accurate information for <br />communities and property owners to make sound siting and design decisions when building new <br />structures and infrastructure and when retrofitting existing structures. If used by communities for <br />floodplain management, this will dramatically reduce long-term flood losses in North Carolina. <br />This initial mapping project will address the eastern six river basins, which were the basins most <br />impacted by Hurricane Floyd. These river basins account for approximately one-half of area of <br />the State, impact 48 counties and 334 incorporated municipalities, and encompass over 21,000 <br />miles of streams and rivers. <br /> <br />Draf~ Annex C v.3 C-8 1 June 2002 <br /> <br /> <br />
