<br />4. Estimate the probability (or return periods) of flows of <br /> <br />magnitudes similar t:o the past flows through evaluation <br /> <br />of geologic-hydrologic probability combinations. <br />5. Recommend methods b), which property can be protected <br /> <br />from future events ()f similar magnitudes. <br /> <br />Although this study focuses on three small basins and their associated <br /> <br />debris fans, it is recognized that the hazard is far more widespre_ad throughout <br /> <br />Glenwood Springs. In some locHtions the hi:J.zard may be more S.2vere than <br /> <br />,n the study area. For example, the majority of downtmm Glenwood Springs <br /> <br />'" built on the debris fan of C,emetery Gulch which has experienced debris <br /> <br />flows In the past. The present study provides specific analyses and solutions <br /> <br />rather than general ones. It i, anticipated that it will increase knowledge <br /> <br />about the .':Xpe of hazard that exists and will encourage additional quantitative <br /> <br />analyses of the debris-flow process. <br /> <br />- 5 - <br />
