<br />Approximate boundaries of flood-prone areas are shown on this map. There is, on the
<br />average, about 1 chance in 100 that the designated areas will be inundated in any year.
<br />This information is important to public agencies and private citizens concerned with future
<br />land developments.
<br />The flood-prone areas have been delineated through use of readily available informa-
<br />tion on past floods rather than from detailed field surveys and inspections. In general,
<br />the deJineated areas are for natural conditions and do not take into consideration the pos-
<br />sible effects of existing or proposed flood control structures except where those effects
<br />could be evaluated. Flood areas have been identified for: (1) urban areas where the up-
<br />stream drainage basin exceeds 25 square miles, (2) rural areas in humid regions where the
<br />upstream drainage basin exceeds 100 square miles, (3) rural areas in semiarid regions where
<br />the upstream drainage basin exceeds 250 square miles, and (4) smaner drainage basins,
<br />depending on topOgraphy and potential use of the flood plains.
<br />The 89th Congress, in Hou~e Document 465, recommended the preparation of flood-prone
<br />area mapS to assist in"minimizing flood losses by quickly identifying the areas of potential
<br />flood hazards. More detailed flood information may be required for other purposes such
<br />as structural designs, economic studies, or formulation of land-use regulations. Such de-
<br />tailed information may be obtained from the U.S. Geological Survey, other Federal agencies,
<br />or State, local, and private agencies.
