<br />25 <br /> <br />Last year we also produced a double volume document to assist in the <br />implementation of the emergency management directives called the Emer- <br />gency Planning and Exercise Guidelines. These volumes contain suggested <br />instructions on how to accomplish the required activities, prototypes of an <br />Emergency Action Plan and a dam-specific warning and evacuation plan, and <br />other planning tools. <br />Another current activity given a high priority is the digitizing of all our <br />inundation maps, including processes used to produce the maps. The <br />processes currently being used or under development include: 1) scanning <br />inundation areas from previously prepared maps and layering that information <br />onto digitized raster graphic (DRG) quad sheets using a Geographic <br />Information System (GIS), 2) using river modeling software to create the <br />maps on a PC computer, and 3) using GIS-based software, called Dambreak <br />Inteiface and developed by our Mid Pacific Regional Office in Sacramento, <br />California, to produce the inundation maps. The software originally produced <br />by the National Weather Service called DAMBRK is an integral part of each <br />of these processes. All of our inundation maps will be produced in digital <br />format on CD-ROM for use on GIS and emergency information systems <br /> <br />Gunnarson <br /> <br />! <br />, <br /> <br />t <br /> <br />(EIS) <br />
