Lower Amazon Floodplain Analysis, Phase 26 <br /> tables, and GIS map layers. They are then consolidated into a special and very complicated <br /> FEMA-specified Digital FIRM format. <br /> Create GIS Digital Flood Map Layers. PWR will consolidate the GIS map layers developed in <br /> this project to produce the GIS map layers required for DFIRM submissions (e.g. political <br /> boundaries, hydrography, and flood hazard areas) that incorporate the FIS and DFIRM results as <br /> specified in the Guidelines and the DFIRM Specifications. These requirements are lengthy, <br /> involved, complex, and exacting, but PWR has the advantage of using previously accepted map <br /> layers as templates to complete the GIS products for this submittal in an extremely cost-effective <br /> manner. <br /> Prepare FIS Report. PWR will prepare FIS study text and supporting tables finalized under <br /> Task 8. PWR will also complete the digital data submission checklist, metadata files for the <br /> digital data sources, and the Flood Insurance Study Certification required of study contractors for <br /> the FIS studies they prepare. <br /> Prepare TSDN. The information from this project will be incorporated into a Technical Support <br /> Data Notebook (TSDN) for inclusion into the FIS submittal to FEMA. This TSDN will include <br /> all previous submittals to FEMA's NSP plus the additional TSDN information required by the <br /> guidelines. <br /> Deliverables (Complete FIS Submittal): <br /> • Digital and paper FIS work maps <br /> • Digital GIS DFIRM map layers <br /> • Digital and paper FIS report text " <br /> • Digital model inputs and outputs <br /> • Paper model input summary <br /> • Digital and paper FIS flood profiles <br /> • Digital and paper table of FIS flows <br /> • Digital and paper floodway data table <br /> • Digital and paper table of ERM / NGS reference locations <br /> • Digital and paper key to cross section labeling <br /> • Digital data submission checklists <br /> • Flood Insurance Study Certification Forms (scanned and paper) <br /> • Technical Support Data Notebook (TSDN) on CD-ROM <br /> POST PRELIMINARY PROCESSING <br /> Following the completion of the FIS submittal package to FEMA there are a few remaining <br /> activities that involve the study contractor (i.e. PWR). This task outlines those activities. <br /> Respond to FEMA's Review. FEMA's National Service Provider, Michael Baker Jr., Inc. <br /> (MBJ), will review the FIS submittal package'and point out any problems that need to be <br /> corrected. PWR will respond to and/or correct any problems that MBJ discovers in their review. <br /> FEMA Public Meeting. PWR will participate in one public meeting that FEMA arranges. The <br /> <br /> purpose of the meeting is to review the preliminary FIS profiles, maps and reports that are <br /> <br /> published for public comment following the NSP's review of the FIS submittal. <br /> Page 3 of 4 <br /> f' <br /> <br />
