Average annual damages under the existing state of development <br />were thus computed to be ~493,590. With-an allowance for future <br />growth, prospective or future average annual damages would amount to <br />$835,440, as itemized in Table 4. Since floodflows from Fountain <br />Creek also increase the inundation and scour damages along the main <br />stem of the Arkansas River from Pueblo to Las Animas, the average <br />annual damages in Reaches 2 to 7 as shown in Table li of the main <br />report, have been indexed to January 1969 prices for existing develop. <br />ment and future growth, and summarized in Table 4. <br /> <br />; <br /> <br />, <br />
