SUMMARY <br />This report has identified the probable flooding limits of the loo-year flood event in the <br />Beebe Draw and Barr Lake Tributaries area. <br />The technical data used to develop the floodplain limits are based on: (1) planned fully <br />developed conditions in the basin. (2) existing drainage system in-place, (3) no blockage of <br />existing culverts and bridge openings and no diversion along roads, railroads or irrigation canals. <br />Even with these assumptions. floods of greater magnitude can and will occur in which the limits <br />of flooding will exceed those shown in this report. <br />Presently Beebe Draw, Redwing Creek. Meadowlark Run and Magpie Run are <br />considered to have a relatively low flood damage potential for the flood hazard areas. The <br />preservation and regulation of the floodplain will serve to maintain the present level of damage <br />potential while any improvements should minimize or reduce the flood damage potential. <br />Reducing the flood hazard potential can be accomplished through structural improvements to <br />culverts and channels, detention basins, flood proofing of structures, and an operational and <br />effective floodplain management program. <br /> <br />18 <br />
