<br />Approximate boundarie!o\ of flood. prone areas an' :-;huwn on this map. There is, on the
<br />average, about 1 chance in 100 that the designated 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 flood. prone areas have be~n delineated through USe of readily available informa-
<br />tion on past floods'rather than from d~tajled field surv~ys and infOpedions, In ~eneral,
<br />the delineated areas are for natural conditions and do not take into consideration the pns-
<br />sible effects of mdsting or proposed flood cnntrol structures ('xcept where those dfects
<br />could he evaluah'c1. Flood areas have heen identified for: (1) urban areas where the up.
<br />stream draina""t' ba~in l'xCN'dl'l 25 square miles. (2) rural areas in humid ,'egions where tht,
<br />upstream drainaK~> ba~jn exceeds 100 square miles. (3) rural areas in semiarid regions whert>
<br />the upi'ltream drainage baRin exceeds 250 square miles, and (4) smaller drainage ha..,ins,
