2. Transportation.
a. Metro Area TransPlan.
The metro area's adopted transportation plan, The Eugene – Springfield Transportation
System Plan (TransPlan), adopted in 2001 and amended in 2002, does not include
projects abutting the subject property but does include a few nearby. These are new
Collector Street projects in the vicinity of the nearby PeaceHealth Riverbend medical
campus (Projects 715, 721 and 756) and an Urban Standards project improving an
existing nearby street (Project 724). These improvements are included in the City of
Springfield 2035 Transportation System Plan.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING
LETTERS OF MAP AMENDMENT
When making determinations on requests for Letters of Map Amendment (LOMAs), the Department of
Homeland Security's Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) bases its determination on the
flood hazard information available at the time of the determination. Requesters should be aware that flood
conditions may change or new information may be generated that would supersede FEMA's determination.
In such cases, the community will be informed by letter.
Requesters also should be aware that removal of a property (parcel of land or structure) from the Special
Flood Hazard Area (SERA) means FEMA has determined the property is not subject to inundation by the
flood having a 1 -percent chance of being equaled or exceeded in any given year (base flood). This does not
mean the property is not subject to other flood hazards. The property could be inundated by a flood with a
magnitude greater than the base flood or by localized flooding not shown on the effective National Flood
Insurance Program (NFIP) map.
The effect of a LOMA is it removes the Federal requirement for the lender to require flood insurance
coverage for the property described. The LOMA is not a waiver of the condition that the property owner
maintain flood insurance coverage for the property. Only the lender can waive the flood insurance purchase
requirement because the lender imposed the requirement. The property owner must request and receive a
written waiver from the lender before canceling the policy. The lender may determine, on its own as a
business decision, that it wishes to continue the flood insurance requirement to protect its financial risk on
the loan.
The LOMA provides FEMA's comment on the mandatory flood insurance requirements of the NFIP as they
apply to a particular property. A LOMA is not a building permit, nor should it be construed as such. Any
development, new construction, or substantial improvement of a property impacted by a LOMA must
comply with all applicable State and local criteria and other Federal criteria.
If a lender releases a property owner from the flood insurance requirement, and the property owner decides
to cancel the policy and seek a refund, the NFIP will refund the premium paid for the current policy year,
provided that no claim is pending or has been paid on the policy during the current policy year. The
property owner must provide a written waiver of the insurance requirement from the lender to the property
insurance agent or company servicing his or her policy. The agent or company will then process the refund
request.
Even though structures are not located in an SFHA, as mentioned above, they could be flooded by a flooding
event with a greater magnitude than the base flood. In fact, more than 25 percent of all claims paid by the
NFIP are for policies for structures located outside the SERA in Zones B, C, X (shaded), or X (unshaded).
More than one-fourth of all policies purchased under the NFIF protect structures located in these zones.
The risk to structures located outside SFHAs is just not as great as the risk N structures located in SFHAs.
Finally, approximately 90 percent of all federally declared disasters are caused by flooding, and homeowners
insurance does not provide financial protection from this flooding. Therefore, FEMA encourages the
widest possible coverage under the NFIP.
LOMAENC-1(LOMA Removal)
The NFIP offers two types of flood insurance policies to property owners: the low-cost Preferred Risk
Policy (PRP) and the Standard Flood Insurance Policy (SFIP). The PRP is available for 1- to 4 -family
residential structures located outside the SFHA with little or no loss history. The PRP is available for
townhouse/rowhome-type structures, but is not available for other types of condominium units. The SFIP is
available for all other structures. Additional information on the PRP and how a property owner can quality
for this type of policy may be obtained by calling the Flood Insurance Information Hotline, toll free, at 1-800-
427-4661. Before making a final decision about flood insurance coverage, FEMA strongly encourages
property owners to discuss their individual flood risk situations and insurance needs with an insurance agent
or company.
FEMA has established "Grandfather" rules to benefit flood insurance policyholders who have maintained
continuous coverage. Property owners may wish to note also that, if they live outside but on the fringe of the
SFHA shown on an effective NFIP map and the map is revised to expand the SFHA to include their
structure(s), their flood insurance policy rates will not increase as long as the coverage for the affected
structure(s) has been continuous. Property owners would continue to receive the lower insurance policy
rates.
LOMAs are based on minimum criteria established by the NFIP. State, county, and community officials,
based on knowledge of local conditions and in the interest of safety, may set higher standards for
construction in the SFHA. If a State, county, or community has adopted more restrictive and comprehensive
floodplain management criteria, these criteria take precedence over the minimum Federal criteria.
to accordance with regulations adopted by the community when it made application tojoin the NFIP, letters
issued to amend an NFIP map must be attached to the community's official record copy of the map. That
map is available for public inspection at the community's official map repository. Therefore, FEMA sends
copies of all such letters to the affected community's official map repository.
When a restudy is undertaken, or when a sufficient number of revisions or amendments occur on particular
map panels, FEMA initiates the printing and distribution process for the affected panels. FEMA notifies
community officials in writing when affected map panels are being physically revised and distributed. In
such cases, FEMA attempts to reflect the results of the LOMA on the new map panel. If the results of
particular LOMAs cannot be reflected on the new map panel because of scale limitations, FEMA notifies the
community in writing and revalidates the LOMAs in that letter. LOMAs revalidated in this way usually will
become effective 1 day after the effective date of the revised map.
