<br />be eaused by. a recurrence-of the 1948 ~d ~950floods were used in eon-
<br />junction with other data 'gathered during the field investigation to
<br />establish a discharge-damage relaoi.on.! This relation was then used to
<br />estimate the damages tb..at o0\11d be exp~cted from a repetition of the
<br />other floods whi.ch st,udies and intervibws indicate have o.ecurred dUI'ing
<br />the 34-year period (i918-1951). AverEige annUal damages were then eom-
<br />puted by dividing the total damages t~at would result from a repetition
<br />of the floods of r<lcord by the number :Of years in the. period. .Th<l total
<br />damag~ that w:ou1d b<l eaused by a repe~ition of th<l floods of record .
