[5pt] Use the 1% FEMA NFHL as the boundary for floodplain adjustment #1680

Description

@CarsonPruitt-NOAA

There are a few areas that FIM v6 is inundating well outside of the channel due to the floodplain adjustment. In Phoenix, the FEMA 0.2% NFHL is very expansive, which I think is the main cause. Let's try switching to the 1% boundary and also halve the buffer in areas without NFHL coverage to 1.5 km.

This is in HUC 15070102.
