Water Surface Profiles

In addition to the 100- and SOO-year frequency floods, the 10-, 2S-

and SO-year events are plotted on the water surface profiles. Informa-

tion regarding these lower frequency floods is especially useful for

engineering design purposes related to roads, storm sewers, channels,

and appurtenant structures. For information regarding flood line eleva-

tions at a specific location, the water surface profile data can be used

in conjunction with the flood hazard maps. The cross-section locations

which appear on both the profiles and maps can be used as reference

points. Water surface profiles are included in this report as Exhibit

~. Photo index sheet numbers, compatible with cross-section locations,

Ire shown on each water surface profile exhibit.

Exhibit B is a selection of typical valley cross-sections illus-

trating the configuration of stream channels and adjoining flood plain

areas. Shown on the cross-sections are the elevations and lateral

extent for the 100- and SOO-year flood events.

Tables I through S Include flood crest elevations and peak dis-

charges for the 10-, 2S-, SO-, "100- and SOO-year floods. Tabular

material is compatible with reach numbers and cross-section designations

on the maps and water surface profiles. Report data can be used by

those people concerned in making decisions related to the use and manage-

ment of flood plain areas.
