<br />. <br /> <br />BENEFITS <br /> <br />Benefits include flood damage reduction on and downstream <br /> <br /> <br />from Lowry Air Force Base and location benefits on Lowry Air <br /> <br /> <br />Force Base. Average annual benefits are shown in table 16. <br /> <br />Table l6 <br />Benefits of Selected Plan <br /> <br />Flood Damage <br />Reduction <br /> <br />Location <br />Benefits <br /> <br />Total <br /> <br />Kelly Road Dam and Upper <br />Lowry Dam $1,589,000 $58,000 $l,647,000 <br />Downstream Channel <br />Improvements 704,000 0 704,000 <br />Channel Improvements - <br />Upper Lowry Dam 42,000 0 42,000 <br />Upstream Drainage <br />Improvements 250,000 0 250,000 <br />Totals $2,585,000 $58,000 $2,643,000 <br /> <br />Reduction in physical damages to streets, bridges, and utili- <br /> <br /> <br />ties and cleanup costs would be insignificant and are not in- <br /> <br /> <br />cluded. There would be no reduction in business and financial <br /> <br /> <br />losses that could not be compensated for by postponement or <br /> <br /> <br />transfer. Savings in emergency costs would be insignificant and, <br /> <br /> <br />therefore, are not included. New development in the flood plain <br /> <br />will be limited by space and flood plain regulation with or with- <br /> <br /> <br />out the plan. Base year and projected unit damages and benefits, <br /> <br /> <br />therefore, are considered equal to the benefits under existing <br /> <br /> <br />conditions and are not tabulated. Intensification benefits are <br /> <br /> <br />unlikely because building restrictions with and without the plan <br /> <br /> <br />will be very similar. Affluence factors were not applied. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />56 <br />
