IV. RELATIONSHIP OF THE FACILITY TO THE 100-YEAR FLOODPLAIN <br /> The relevant flood zone information is presented in figure VI-1. This <br /> information was extracted from Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) <br /> flood zone information map (060299-0585C, panel 585 of 925) . <br /> DDRW Sharpe Site is located within flood ' zone B. This zone is defined as <br /> follows: <br /> "Areas between limits of the 100-year flood and 500-year flood; or <br /> certain areas subject to 100-year flooding with average depths less than one <br /> (1) foot or where the contributing drainage area is less than one square <br /> mile; or areas protected by levees from the base flood." <br /> DDRW Sharpe Site is protected from the one percent annual change <br /> (100-year) flood by railroad embankment on the east and west sides. <br /> Because DDRW Sharpe is not within the 100-year floodplain, the remaining <br /> subsections of Section VI are not applicable. <br /> IV-1 <br />
