Floodway Schematic <br /> <br />5.0 INSURANr.E APPLICATION <br /> <br />In order to establish actuarial insurance rates, the Federal Insurance <br />Administration has developed a process to transform the data from the <br />engineering study into flood insurance criteria. This process includes <br />the determination of reaches, Flood Hazard Factors, and flood insurance <br />zone designations for each flooding source studied in detail affecting <br />the unincorporated areas of Summit County. <br /> <br />5.1 <br /> <br />Reach Determinations <br /> <br />" <br /> <br />Reaches are defined as lengths of watercourses having relatively the <br />same flood hazard, based on the average weighted difference in <br />water-surface elevations between the 10- and lOa-year floods. This <br />difference does not have a variation greater than that indicated in <br />the following table for more than 20 percent of the reach: <br /> <br />21 <br />
