The special flood hazard areas identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency in a scientific and engineering report entitled “Flood Insurance Study Town of Parachute, Garfield Colorado,” dated September 27, 1991, with accompanying flood insurance rate maps and/or flood boundary-floodway maps (FIRM and/or FBFM) and any revisions thereto are hereby adopted by reference and declared to be a part of this chapter. These special flood hazard areas identified by the FIS and attendant mapping are the minimum area of applicability of this chapter and may be supplemented by studies designated by the Town. These supplemental studies may include flood hazard area delineation (FHAD) studies, or other one hundred (100) year floodplain studies approved by the Town, Garfield County, or other local, regional, state or federal agencies.
