<br />For the original PIS, the identification of streams requIrIng detailed study was
<br />accomplished at a meeting attended by representatives of the study contractor, FEMA, and
<br />the Larimer County Planning Department on April 20, 1976. After the Big Thompson
<br />River flood of July 31, 1976, the study scope was increased to include the Big Thompson
<br />Canyon area.
<br />
<br />The US ACE, Omaha District, was contacted and provided flood plain data on the Big
<br />Thompson and the Cache La Poudre Rivers for use in preparing the Flood Insurance Study.
<br />
<br />During the work by the study contractor, flood elevations, flood boundaries, and floodway
<br />delineations were reviewed with community officials.
<br />
<br />Final coordination meetings were held in Loveland and Fort Collins on November 29 and
<br />30, 1977, respectively. These meetings were attended by representatives of Larimer
<br />County, FEMA, the study contractor, and the general public. The results of these meetings
<br />have been incorporated into this report.
<br />
<br />Streams requiring additional detailed study were identified at a meeting attended by
<br />representatives of the study contractor, FEMA, Larimer County, and the Town of Estes
<br />Park in April 1983. The results of this additional work were reviewed at a meeting
<br />attended by representatives of these groups on February 27, 1986.
<br />
<br />On October 10, 1986, the initial coordination meeting for the Cache La Poudre study took
<br />place during a conference call between representatives of FEMA, the City of Fort Collins,
<br />Larimer County, and the study contractor. Various other meetings were held to discuss
<br />ongoing flood studies, the location of the upstream and downstream study limits, and the
<br />hydrology to be used in the analysis. It was decided that the study should begin at the
<br />Larimer-Weld County line and extend upstream to Horsetooth Road, a distance of
<br />approximately 7.6 river miles.
<br />
<br />Representatives of FEMA, the City of Fort Collins, Larimer County, the Town of Windsor,
<br />and the study contractor met on July 6, 1989, to review the preliminary results of the study
<br />reach downstream of Horsetooth Road. Those present felt that the study contractor had
<br />done a technically correct analysis of the flood plain, including several divided-flow areas.
