In addition to the identification of Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHAs), the risk zones shown on the FIRMs are the basis for the establishment of premium rates for flood coverage offered through the NFIP. The DFIRM Database presents the flood risk information depicted on the FIRM in a digital format suitable for use in electronic mapping applications.

Features may have been eliminated or generalized on the source graphic, due to scale and legibility constraints. With new mapping, FEMA plans to maintain full detail in the spatial data it produces. However, older information is often transferred from existing maps where some generalization has taken place. Flood risk data are developed for communities participating in the NFIP for use in insurance rating and for floodplain management. Flood hazard areas are determined using statistical analyses of records of river flow, storm tides, and rainfall; information obtained through consultation with the communities; floodplain topographic surveys; and hydrological and hydraulic analysis. Both detailed and approximate analyses are employed. Generally, detailed analyses are used to generate flood risk data only for developed or developing areas of communities. For areas where little or no development is expected to occur, FEMA uses approximate analyses to generate flood risk data.

This DFIRM includes data previously published by FEMA in the following Flood Insurance Studies: City of Bonita Springs, Florida 20030505; City of Cape Coral, Florida 19850918; City of Fort Meyers, Florida 19841115; Lee County , Florida Unincorporated Areas 20030505; City of Sanibel, Florida 19960929. This FIS was prepared to include the unincorporated areas of, and incorporated communities within, Lee County in a countywide format. Information on the authority and acknowledgments for each jurisdiction included in this countywide FIS, as compiled from their previously printed FIS reports, is shown below. Cape Coral, City of: for the August 17, 1981, FIS, the hydrologic and hydraulic analyses were performed in 1978 by Tetra Tech, Inc., for the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), under Contract No. H-4059. For the September 18, 1985, FIS, the hydrologic and hydraulic analyses were based on the report "Determination of 100-Year Coastal Surge Flood Elevations for Lee County, Florida" (South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD), January 1983). Fort Myers, City of: for the April 16, 1979, FIS, the hydrologic and hydraulic analyses were performed in February 1978 by Tetra Tech, Inc., for FEMA under Contract No. H-4059. For the November 15, 1984, FIS, the hydrologic and hydraulic analyses were based on the report "Determination of 100-Year Coastal Surge Flood Elevations for Lee County, Florida" (SFWMD, January 1983). Lee County (Unincorporated Areas): for the original June 15, 1984, FIS report and September 19, 1984, FIRM (hereinafter referred to as the 1984 FIS), the hydrologic and hydraulic analyses for the detailed studied streams were prepared by Tetra Tech, Inc., for FEMA under Contract No. H-4059. That work was completed in 1978. The 1984 FIS was also prepared based on the coastal surge and wave height analysis data prepared by SFWMD (SFWMD, 1983). For the November 3, 1989, revision, coastal analyses for three additional transects along the Gulf of Mexico were prepared by Tackney and Associates, Inc. for FEMA. FEMA reviewed and accepted the analyses for the purposes of the revision. For the March 15, 1994, revision, the revised and new hydrologic and hydraulic analyses were taken from a report prepared by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS, formerly Soil Conservation Service (SCS)) (USDA, 1984). For the July 20, 1998, revision, the hydrologic and hydraulic analyses for the Imperial River were prepared by Woodward-Clyde Federal Services for FEMA Hazard Mitigation and Technical Assistance Planning under Contract No. EMW-C-4678, Task Order No. 37. This work was completed on March 12, 1995. Sanibel, City of: for the April 16, 1979, FIS, the hydrologic and hydraulic analyses for the study were prepared by Tetra Tech, Inc., for FEMA under Contract No. H-4059. This work was completed in February 1978. For the October 15, 1985, FIS, the hydrologic and hydraulic analyses were based on the report "Determination of 100-Year Coastal Surge Flood Elevations for Lee County, Florida" (SFWMD, January 1983). The authority and acknowledgments for the City of Bonita Springs and the Town of Fort Myers Beach are not available because no FIS reports were ever published for those communities.</DD> <BR /><BR /> </DL> </DD> </DL> </DD> <DT><FONT color="#0000AA"><B>Source scale denominator:</B></FONT> 6000</DT> <DT><FONT color="#0000AA"><B>Type of source media:</B></FONT> Paper</DT> <DT><FONT color="#0000AA"><B>Source citation abbreviation:</B></FONT></DT> <DD>FIS1</DD> <DIV> <DT><FONT color="#0000AA"><B>Source contribution:</B></FONT></DT> <PRE ID="original">Spatial and attribute information for cross sections, BFEs, station start descriptions, general structures, coastal transects, and some feature names.</PRE> <SCRIPT>fix(original)</SCRIPT> </DIV> <BR /> <DT><FONT color="#0000AA"><B>Source time period of content:</B></FONT></DT> <DD> <DL> <DT><FONT color="#0000AA"><B>Time period information:</B></FONT></DT> <DD> <DL> <DT><FONT color="#0000AA"><B>Single date/time:</B></FONT></DT> <DD> <DL> <DT> <FONT color="#0000AA"><B>Calendar date:</B></FONT> 20080828</DT> </DL> </DD> </DL> </DD> <BR /> <DT><FONT color="#0000AA"><B>Source currentness reference:</B></FONT></DT> <DD>FIS Effective dates</DD> </DL> </DD> <BR /> </DL> </DD> <DT><FONT color="#0000AA"><B>Source information:</B></FONT></DT> <DD> <DL> <DT><FONT color="#0000AA"><B>Source citation:</B></FONT></DT> <DD> <DL> <DT><FONT color="#0000AA"><B>Citation information:</B></FONT></DT> <DD> <DL> <DT> <FONT color="#0000AA"><B>Originators:</B></FONT> Federal Emergency Management Agency</DT> <BR /><BR /><DT><FONT color="#0000AA"><B>Title:</B></FONT></DT> <DD>Flood Insurance Study, Lee County, Florida</DD> <BR /><BR /><DT> <FONT color="#0000AA"><B>Publication date:</B></FONT> 20080828</DT> <DT><FONT color="#0000AA"><B>Geospatial data presentation form:</B></FONT> Vector digital data</DT> <BR /><BR /><DT><FONT color="#0000AA"><B>Publication information:</B></FONT></DT> <DD> <DL> <DT><FONT color="#0000AA"><B>Publication place:</B></FONT> Washington, D.C.</DT> <DT><FONT color="#0000AA"><B>Publisher:</B></FONT> Federal Emergency Management Agency</DT> </DL> </DD> <BR /> <DT><FONT color="#0000AA"><B>Other citation details:</B></FONT></DT> <DD>Additional hydraulic analyses for the coastal back bay areas were prepared for FEMA by Dewberry and Davis, LLC, under Contract HSFEHQ-04-D-0025.

CBRS source maps, titled John H. Chaffee Coastal Barrier Resources System, contain Congressionally-adopted delineations of CBRS boundaries as well as Otherwise Protected Areas (OPAs), which only carry a Federal flood insurance prohibition. In cooperation with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the Federal Emergency Management Agency transfers CBRS and OPA boundaries to Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs) using the aforementioned Congressionally-adopted source maps. As areas are added or removed from the CBRs or OPAs, the source maps that are adopted into public law do not differentiate between old and new areas within the individual CBRS units or OPAs. Therefore, the FIRMs serve as the source map for internal CBRS and OPA boundaries, as these internal boundaries are important to determine the proper prohibition date to apply to each area.</DD> <BR /><BR /> </DL> </DD> </DL> </DD> <DT><FONT color="#0000AA"><B>Source scale denominator:</B></FONT> 24000</DT> <DT><FONT color="#0000AA"><B>Type of source media:</B></FONT> Paper</DT> <DT><FONT color="#0000AA"><B>Source citation abbreviation:</B></FONT></DT> <DD>FIS2</DD> <DIV> <DT><FONT color="#0000AA"><B>Source contribution:</B></FONT></DT> <PRE ID="original">Location of Coastal Barrier Resources System Areas</PRE> <SCRIPT>fix(original)</SCRIPT> </DIV> <BR /> <DT><FONT color="#0000AA"><B>Source time period of content:</B></FONT></DT> <DD> <DL> <DT><FONT color="#0000AA"><B>Time period information:</B></FONT></DT> <DD> <DL> <DT><FONT color="#0000AA"><B>Single date/time:</B></FONT></DT> <DD> <DL> <DT> <FONT color="#0000AA"><B>Calendar date:</B></FONT> 19831001</DT> </DL> </DD> </DL> </DD> <BR /> <DT><FONT color="#0000AA"><B>Source currentness reference:</B></FONT></DT> <DD>Publication date</DD> </DL> </DD> <BR /> </DL> </DD> <DT><FONT color="#0000AA"><B>Process step:</B></FONT></DT> <DD> <DL> <DIV> <DT><FONT color="#0000AA"><B>Process description:</B></FONT></DT> <PRE ID="original">The DFIRM Database is compiled in conjunction with the hardcopy FIRM and the final FIS report.
