<br />transport water to other areas of Fort Collins. If conditions and time <br />allows, it may be advisable to evacuate these areas as well. <br /> <br />This study was terminated a few miles downstream of Fort Morgan, <br />Colorado, since much of the flood flows dissipate in the last 40 to 50 <br />mil es. <br /> <br />FLOOD WAVE TRAVEL TIMES <br /> <br />The travel times for the flood to move from the dams to cities and <br />communities downstream are shown on the table below and the index sheet. <br /> <br />Each travel time shown in the third column is the time for the <br />leading edge of the flood wave to move from the dams to the correspond- <br />ing city downstream. The fourth column is the travel time for the <br />flood crest (maximum flood depth) to move from the dams to the cities <br />downstream. This flood crest would follow the leading edge of the flood <br />wave generally moving at a slower rate. <br /> <br />The travel times shown are the shortest times expected for the <br />leading edge of the flood wave and the flood crest to travel to cities <br />downstream. For floods of a lesser size, the travel times would <br />generally be longer than that shown. <br /> <br />TABLE OF FLOOD WAVE TRAVEL TIMES <br /> <br /> Travel time Travel time <br /> for leading for crest of <br /> edge of fl ood- floodwave to <br /> wave to move move from <br /> Mil es from Horsetooth Horsetooth Dams <br /> from Dam to points to points down- <br /> Landmark dam downstream (hrs) stream (hrsl <br />Dam 0.0 0 0 <br />Taft Hi 11 Road 1.9 less than 1 hr less than 1 hr <br />CSU Campus 3.1 less than 1 hr less than 1 hr <br />Cache 1 a Poudre River 4.6 less than 1 hr less than 1 hr <br />Interstate Highway 25 7.5 1 1 <br />Timnath 10.5 2 2 <br /> 7 <br />
