<br />e <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />WHEREAS, the approximate floodplain information in said report with included maps for <br />stream reaches in Arapahoe County as listed in Table 2 was the best regulatory floodplain <br />information at the time of the study but did not necessarily meet the Board's "Rules and <br />Regulations for the Designation and Approval of Floodplains and of Storm or Floodwater Runoff <br />Channels in Colorado" (2 CCR 408-1) during the time in which said report was effective; and <br /> <br />WHEREAS, the Colorado Water Conservation Board produced a report entitled. <br />"Guidelines for Determining lOO-year Flood Flows for Approximate Floodplains in Colorado" <br />(Guidelines) that provides basic hydrology information for certain streams within Arapahoe <br />County and other portions of the state; and <br /> <br />WHEREAS, the availability of the hydrology Guidelines, as they apply to certain <br />approximate floodplain reaches in Arapahoe County, now provide a means for those certain <br />floodplain reaches to meet the Board's "Rules and Regulations for the Designation and Approval of <br />Floodplains and of Storm or Floodwater Runoff Channels in Colorado" (2 CCR 408-1); and <br /> <br />WHEREAS, the approximate and detailed floodplain information contained in said report <br />with included maps has been superseded by more current Flood Insurance Studies or floodplain <br />information reports that have not yet been designated by the Colorado Water Conservation Board, <br />and therefore this resolution will be rescinded once those newer reports are reviewed and <br />designated as appropriate at a future Board meeting. <br /> <br />DESIGNATION AND APPROVAL ACTION <br />NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Colorado Water Conservation Board in <br />regular meeting assembled in Denver, Colorado, this 22nd day of November 1999, that it does <br />hereby designate and approve as approximate floodplain information the storm or floodwater runoff <br />channels and basins, as listed in Table 2 and as described by approximate floodplain information in <br />said Arapahoe County Flood Insurance Study dated August 1977 that meet the criteria set forth in <br />the CWCB's Guidelines for Determining JOO-year Flood Flows for Approximate Floodplains in <br />Colorado and therefore meet the requirements of the Board's "Rules and Regulations for the <br />Designation and Approval of Floodplains and of Storm or Floodwater Runoff Channels in <br />Colorado" (2 CCR 408-1); and <br /> <br />BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED by the Colorado Water Conservation Board that it does <br />hereby designate and approve as detailed information the storm or floodwater runoff channels and <br />basins within Arapahoe County as listed in Table 3 described by 100-year floodplain delineations <br />in said report dated August 1977 with included maps; and <br /> <br />BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Secretary of the Board is directed to send a <br />certified copy of this resolution to the Arapahoe County Government; the Colorado Office of <br />Emergency Management; and the Federal Emergency Management Agency. <br /> <br />5 <br />
