SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On Friday, January 24, 2014, FEMA published a final rulemaking at 79 FR 4095, finalizing flood elevation determinations along one or more flooding sources in Colfax County, Nebraska, and Incorporated Areas. FEMA recently determined that certain administrative errors occurred which affected the statutory appeal period for eligible communities in Colfax County and rescinded the Letter of Final Determination issued on October 16, 2013. Therefore, FEMA is withdrawing the final rulemaking at the above-referenced publication. FEMA will provide additional due process for affected communities and resolve any appeals or comments received during the appeal period prior to finalizing the flood elevation determinations for Colfax County, Nebraska and Incorporated Areas.
