The identified floodplain area may be revised or modified by
North East Borough Council where studies or information provided by
a qualified agency or person documents the need for such revision.
However, prior to any such change, approval must be obtained from
the FEMA. Additionally, as soon as practicable, but not later than
six months after the date such information becomes available, a community
shall notify the FEMA of the changes by submitting technical or scientific
data.
Should a dispute concerning any identified floodplain boundary
arise, an initial determination shall be made by the Floodplain Administrator
and any party aggrieved by this decision or determination may appeal
to the Council. The burden of proof shall be on the appellant.
