<br />Approximate boundarit.,s of flood. prone areas are 8hown on thif:; map. Th~re is, on the
<br />average, about 1 chance in 100 that the desig:nated 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 fJood.prone areas have been ddjm~ated through use of readily a\'ailabl~ informa-
<br />tion on past flof)&~ rather than from detailed field surveys and inspections. Tn general,
<br />the delineatt>d areas are fur natural conditions ilnd do not take into consideration the pos-
<br />sible pHeets of existing or proposed flood control structures except where thm~e effects
<br />could be evaluated. Flood an'as have bet!D identified for: (1) urban areas where the up-
<br />stream drainage basin exceed/! 25 square miles. (2) rural areas in humid regions whl"re the
<br />upstream drainage basin exceeds 100 square miles. (3) rural areas in semiarid regions where
<br />tht. upstream drainage basin exceeds 250 square miles, and (4) smaller drainage hasins.
<br />nepending on topo1o{raphy and potential use of the flood plains.
<br />The 89th Congress, in House Document 46.'). recommended the preparation of flood-prom~
<br />area map!" to a8sist 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 studiei'!. or formulation of land-use rf'gulations. Such de-
<br />taih,d information may he obtained from the U.S. Geological Survey. other F{'d"~ral agencies,
<br />or State, local. and private agencies.
