A. The approximate location and extent of geologically hazardous areas are shown on the adopted critical areas maps. The adopted critical areas maps include:

1. U.S. Geological Survey landslide and seismic hazard maps;

2. Washington State Department of Natural Resources seismic hazard maps for Western Washington;

3. Washington State Department of Natural Resources slope stability maps;

4. Federal Emergency Management Administration flood insurance maps; and

5. Locally adopted maps.

B. These maps are to be used as a guide for the city, project applicants and/or property owners and may be continuously updated as new critical areas are identified. They are a reference and do not provide a final critical areas designation. (Ord. 1946 § 3, 2005).
