Simpson, State Engineer <br />LJ3-en Boulas, Director, Office of Emergency Management <br /> <br />DATE: March 23, 1993 <br /> <br />SUBJECT: <br /> <br />Spring 1993 Flood Potential - "Lets be Prepared!" <br /> <br />The purpose of this ANNOUNCEMENT is to make appropriate parties aware of a <br />possible flood threat to certain Colorado communities. By reviewing the March 1, 1993 <br />snowpack readings, as prepared by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Soil Conservation <br />Service, we can readily conclude that our central and southern Colorado communities may face <br />a potential flood and streambank erosion threat during the months of May and June, 1993. <br />There are a number of flood preparedness activities which you may want to undertake for your <br />community to lessen the risks to life and reduce flood losses. <br /> <br />These activities are: <br /> <br />Knowing jf a Flood Threat Exists; <br /> <br />Being Aware of the Geographic Extent of Floodplains in Your Community <br /> <br />Purchasing of Flood Insurance; <br /> <br />Implementing Advance Protective Measures; and <br /> <br />Knowing Your Emergency Response Plan Procedures. <br />
