Hi all, I sought an “out-of-cycle” update because the project should be moving towards certification, and because we all look forward to project accreditation (I usually seek an update every four months). I didn’t ask for much detail, and didn’t follow-up with any questions, but there does appear to be good news to share: (1) DPW indicates FEMA has issued a case number and acknowledged LOMR (“Letter of Map Revision”) review. The 90-day FEMA review period has started and is underway. You can find more about the FEMA LOMR process here: https://emilms.fema.gov/IS1120/groups/140.html (2) The utility issue at 67th and Ferguson has been resolved (repaired) with USACE approval. This is a milestone for levee safety certification by the USACE. (3) The pipe inspections are wrapping up as well. DPW indicates “these items are all good.” Hope this helps! Jim Polito |
