Barrett, President <br />Town Council <br />P.O. Box 1174 <br />Steamboat Springs, Colo. 80477 <br /> <br />Dear Mr. Barrett: <br /> <br />The Colorado Water Conservation Board is required by state <br />statutes to designate and approve all floodplain studies before <br />local governments can legally enforce floodplain regulations based <br />on such studie's. <br /> <br />As part of this requirement the Colorado Water Conservation <br />Board recently reviewed the "final proof" copy of the Flood Ins- <br />urance Study for Steamboat Springs to determine if the study meets <br />the technical standards of the board. <br /> <br />The Flood Insurance Study is based on a Corps of Engineers' <br />flood hazard information study that was prepared for the Routt <br />County Regional Planning Commission and the Colorado Water Con- <br />servation Board. The Corps of Engineers' study was designated by <br />the board on March 17, 1976. <br /> <br />Since the 100 year water surface elevations and profiles in <br />the flood insurance study and the Corps of Engineers' study agree <br />no action will be required by the CWCB. <br /> <br />Please contact me if you have any questions about the board's <br />designation function or if we can be of any assistance in implement- <br />ing the study. <br /> <br />SCJY~v?c <br /> <br />E.
