<br />TO RESlDEN'I'S OF TIlE BElIR CREEK AND CLEAR CREEK VALLEYS, COLOMDO,
<br />AND O'I'Hr.RS CONCERNED WITH TIlE FLOOD Il/\ZARD IN 'rllESE AREAS:
<br />
<br />,
<br />
<br />'.;
<br />
<br />The inrormation presented in this volume is based On data and
<br />technical study result6 available at the time or its compilation, and
<br />is conGidered to provide a rcasolUlble def'inition or the flood hazard
<br />in the areas involved. However, in connection With the Corps of
<br />Engineers' current survey of the South Platte River Dadn, h"vdrologic
<br />and lwiraulic 8tudie6 are underway...hich.,lllpermit refinement of
<br />the information pr~sented herein, if appropriate_
<br />
<br />.
<br />
<br />-'-,-
<br />
<br />'.-'
<br />
<br />Such refinement, if required at all, <wOuld be limited to
<br />generally minor modification of the flood outline for t.he 1 percent
<br />ehance flood and of t-ebuLer dsta presented ror floods smaller than
<br />the Ipen:ent chance flood. It is considered that nO chang<:: <wOuld
<br />be made in the ~lood plein limits 8S delineated herein.
<br />
<br />I~ the result.s o~ the5e continuing studies require sny significant
<br />ch~nllcH in the data presented, revised maps and pertinent data IIill
<br />be fllrniBhed to those usine: this volll1ne.
