Avproximate boundaries of flood-prone areas are shown on this map. There is, on the
averaJ.{e, about 1 chanc(' in 100 that the designated art'as will he inundated in any jo'ear.
This information is important to public agencies and privatt> citizens concerned with future
land developnH>nt~.
The flood-prone areas haY'" been delineated through use of readily available informa-
tion on pa~t floods rather than from detailed field ~uneys and inspections. In general.
the delineatE-d arE-as are for natural conditions and do not take into consideration the pC>>l-
sihle effects of existing or proposed flood control structure~ except where those effects
could be evaluated. Flood area~ have bet'n idt'ntified for: (1) urban areas wht>re the up-
I'Itrt'am drainage basin eneeds 25 square miles, (2) rural areas in humid regions where th~'
upstream drainage basin eX('e(.dR 100 square milt.s, (3) rural areas in semiarid regions when>
the upstream drainage basin exceeds 250 square miles, and (4) smaller drainage basins.
deppnding on topography and potential use of the flood plains.
The 89th Congress, in House Document 465, rf'commended the preparation of flooo-prnnl"
area maps to assist in minimizing flood los!o1es by quickly identifying the areas of potential
flood hazards. More detailed flood information may be requirt'd for other purposes such
as structural designs. economic ~tudit's, or formulation of land-mle rpgulations. Such de-
tailed information may be obtainpd from the U.S. Geological Survey. othf~r Fedf>ral agencit,s,
or State. Inca!, and private agencies.
