The ma~orj_ty of <br />the :?irst Creek channel and the entire ~ribJtar~l T channel_ has beerl <br />recolmnended for Flood Plain Zoning only. <br /> <br />The general criteria for designing stc-Jctu,"es crossing First C:reelt <br />was to pass the 10-year flows with structural protection against. the 100- <br />year flows. Waterway for major crossing were d~~signed to pass the 100- <br />year flows under pressure flow conditi,oTLs ~itho\lt overtopping the road- <br />way. The Fir:;t Creek has been channelizf~d in c!~rtain reaches to pass <br />the lOO-year flow. <br /> <br />Cost Estimat~es <br />----- -~- - ---- <br /> <br />Construction costs fo_r the proj cc t havl= been computed. The total <br />cons.cruction cost is estimated to be $2,290,000 (February, 197:' prices). <br />This includes 20 percent for continger_cj.es ,Inri ~In additiona-L 8 percent <br />Eor l~ngineeriIlg, legal and administrativf~ t{~es. <br /> <br />The over~lll estimated project cost pYl~:;entE~d ill this report is <br />higher than the estimate given in the Phase_ A rE'port due to changes tn <br />improvements proposed under Plan A.
