<br />For Lay Creek and Big Gulch, the flood discharges computed in this <br />study are much lower than the flood discharges computed for the <br />Craig area. Examination of basin characteristics reveal that the <br />lower values in the Lay area are caused by different precipitation <br />patterns (design storms) and much lower average basin slopes. The <br />different precipitation patterns are caused by aerial adjustments <br />to the design cloudburst storms to spread them over entire basins, <br />The basins in the Craig area are much smaller and are covered by <br />entire cloudburst storms. Examination of basin slopes show the <br />slopes in the Craig area are generally much steeper, on the order of <br />3 to 6 times higher. <br /> <br />CONCLUSION <br /> <br />This report documents the procedures used in computing the 10-, 50- <br />, 100- and SOD-year flood discharges for selected flooding sources <br />studied in the City of Craig and Moffat County Flood [nsurance <br />Studies. The results of this study are presented in the Results <br />Section of this report. <br /> <br />If any agency or individual wishes to use the data developed for <br />this report, it would be beneficial if the individual or agency <br />contacted the Federal Insurance and Hazard '>1itigation, Building <br />710, Federal Center, Denver, Colorado. <br /> <br />This report is submitted for review nnd approval. <br /> <br />-;:~~~i;/ <br /> <br />Ty e Smart <br />Project Engineer <br /> <br />&~ccv,..{L ~~n.0,,).z::L7~o..l-~1-jl: <br />E ward G.
