<br />FLOOD INSURANCE STUDY <br /> <br />1,0 INTRODUCTION <br /> <br />1.1 Purpose of Study <br /> <br />The purpose of this Flood Insurance Study is to investigate the <br />existence and severity of flood hazards in the Town of Gypsum, <br />Eagle County, Colorado, and to aid in the administration of the <br />National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 and the Flood Disaster Protec- <br />tion Act of 1973. Initial use of this information will be to <br />convert Gypsum to the regular program of flood insurance by the <br />Federal Insurance Administration. Further use of the information <br />will be made by local and regional planners in their efforts to <br />promote sound land use and flood plain development. <br /> <br />1.2 Coordination <br /> <br />Streams requiring detailed study were identified at a meeting <br />attended by representatives of the study contractor, the Federal <br />Insurance Administration, the Colorado Water Conservation Board, <br />and Eagle County on June 9, 1977. Results of the hydrologic <br />analyses were coordinated with the Colorado Water Conservation <br />Board and the Federal Insurance Administration. <br /> <br />The results of this study were reviewed at a final community <br />coordination meeting held on February 13, 1~79. Attending the <br />meeting were representatives of the Federal Insurance Administration, <br />the study contractor, and the town. This study incorporates all <br />appropriate comments, and all problems have been resolved. <br /> <br />1.3 Authority and Acknowledgments <br /> <br />The source of authority for this Flood Insurance Study is the <br />National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended. <br /> <br />The hydrologic and hydraulic analyses for this study were performed <br />by Gingery Associates, Inc., for the Federal Insurance Administration, <br />under Contract No. H-4549. This work, which was completed in <br />October 1978, covered all significant flooding sources affecting <br />the Town of Gypsum. <br /> <br />2.0 AREA STUDIED <br /> <br />2,1 Scope of Study <br /> <br />This Flood Insurance Study covers the incorporated area of the <br />Town of Gypsum, Eagle County, Colorado. The area of study is <br />shown on the Vicinity Map (Figure 1). <br />
