SEC. 1633. For fiscal year 2011, the Administrator of the Federal Emergency Management Agency may not use the assumption that a currently existing levee or flood control structure does not exist to designate an area as having new flood hazards pursuant to issuance, revision, updating, or any other process to implement changes in flood insurance maps used under the national flood insurance program under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 (42 U.S.C. 4001 et seq.), except in cases where no affected community notifies the Federal Emergency Management Agency of objections to the Administrator's hazard modeling processes within 90 days of the enactment of this Act. Nothing in this section shall be construed to establish, provide, or otherwise imply that the presence of an existing levee or flood control structure pursuant to the preceding sentence thereby accredits such levee with providing protection from a flood of a level that has a 1-percent chance of being equaled or exceeded in any single year.
