<br />Tulare County, Califol'llia Flood Insurance Study. Flood Insurance Study <br />for eight incorporated communities and unincorporated areas of Tulare <br />County, California. The project covered 170 miles of detailed study and <br />266 miles of approximate analysis in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada <br />Mountains and on the floor of the San Joaquin Valley. Much of the study <br />area is typified by complex networks of natural stream channels criss- <br />crossed by man-made irrigation canals and diversions. Hydrologic <br />analyses consisted of log-Pearson Type III statistical analyses and USGS <br />regression methods. Water surface profiles for the 10-, 50-, 100-, and <br />500-year floods were computed and floodways were delineated using <br />the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' HEC-2 computer program. Floodplain <br />maps were produced for publication by FEMA. <br /> <br />City of Bishop, California Flood Insurance Study. Flood Insurance <br />Study for the City of Bishop, California. The hydrology for the primary <br />stream of study, Bishop Creek, is complicated by regulation from four <br />major dams in the upper Sierra Nevada watershed and was analyzed <br />using HEC-l. Water surface elevations and floodways were determined <br />using HEC-2. Detailed floodplain maps were produced for publication <br />by FEMA. <br /> <br />Shasta County/City of Redding Flood Insurance Study. Flood Insurance <br />Study for portions of Shasta County and the City of Redding, in northern <br />California. The project covered 30 miles of detailed study. Peak flood <br />discharges were determined using HEC-1 and water surface profiles <br />were established using HEC-2. Detailed floodplain maps were produced <br />for publication by FEMA. <br /> <br />Location: <br />Year Completed: <br />Client: <br />Contact: <br /> <br />FEMA Region IX (California, Nevada) <br /> <br />Varies <br />FEMA <br /> <br />500 C Street, S.
