The location appears to be within the FEMA 100-year floodplain, and is in relatively natural condition. Highest priorities indicate highest quality natural areas within FEMA 100-year floodplain. This data layer was created by FNAI, in consultation with water resource experts, originally to inform the Florida Forever environmental land acquisition program. It identifies FEMA 100-year floodplain for most counties, or a surrogate model for 100-year floodplain (based on wetlands and soils) where FEMA data isn’t complete. It is prioritized based on land use intensity (sub-model of CLIP Landscape Integrity Index) and FNAI Potential Natural Areas. |
