The 0.2%-chance rainfall was extrapolated <br />from a graphical plot of the other frequency amounts. <br />Both the Oak Creek and Coal Creek watersheds are elongated and exhibit irregular shape. To <br />compute the percent of areal reduction to apply to the point rainfall, the Albuquerque District <br />centered an elliptical rainfall cell over each watershed. The axes for each elliptical cell varied and <br />were established to ensure that the entire watershed was incorporated within the cell. The <br />Albuquerque District reduced the point rainfall in accordance with the NOAA Atlas depth-area- <br />duration curves to equal the area of the appropriate elliptical cell. The areally reduced rainfall was <br />applied uniformly to each watershed. Depth-area reduction for Coal Creek was based on an elliptical <br />cell measuring approximately 35 square miles. For Oak Creek, an elliptical cell with an area of <br />approximately 160 square miles was used. The 50.0%-, 20.0%-, 10.0%-,4.0%-,2.0%-, 1.0%-, and <br />O.2%-chance rainfall for the Oak Creek and Coal Creek watersheds are listed in Table 6. <br /> <br /> TABLE 6 <br /> FREQUENCY RAINFALL <br /> 50.0%- 20.0%- 10.0%- 4.0%- 2.0%- 1.0%- 0.20%- <br /> Chance Chance Chance Chance Chance Chance Chance <br /> Flood Flood Flood Flood Flood Flood Flood <br /> (cfs) (cfs) (cfs) (cfs) (cfs) (cfs) (cfs) <br />Coal Creek 1.87 2.45 2.84 3.46 3.75 4.23 5.05 <br />Oak Creek 1.79 2.35 2.80 3.32 3.60 4.06 4.75 <br /> <br />8 <br />
