<br />FLOOD INSURANCE STUDY <br /> <br />1.0 INTRODUCTION <br /> <br />1.1 <br /> <br />Purpose of Study <br /> <br />'. <br /> <br />This Flood Insurance Study investigates the existence and severity <br />of flood hazards in the Town of Parker, Douglas County, Colorado, <br />and aids in the administration of the National Flood Insurance Act <br />of 1968 and the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973. This studY <br />has developed flood risk data for various areas of the collURunity' <br />that will be used to establish actuarial flood insurance rates and <br />assist the community in its efforts to promote sound flood plain i <br />management. Minimum flood plain management requirements for par- <br />ticipation in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) are set <br />forth in the Code of Federal Regulations at 44 CFR, 60.3. <br /> <br />This Flood Insurance Study was prepared by compiling existing <br />hydrologic and hydraulic technical and scientific data. The data <br />were identified as the best available at the time of compilation <br />of this Flood Insurance Study and should depict the general <br />conditions of the flooding sources with relative accuracy. The <br />Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) performed a cursory <br />review and accepted the data as valid for purposes of this Flood <br />Insurance Study and the NFIP. However, if better information is <br />known to exist or has been developed since the date of this study, <br />the information should be illURediately forwarded to the address <br />below for consideration for revision of this study. <br /> <br />Natural and Technological Hazards Division, FEMA <br />Denver Federal Center, Building 710 <br />Box 25267 <br />Denver, Colorado' 80225-0267 <br /> <br />In some states or cOllURunities, flood plain management criteria or <br />regulations may exist that are more restrictive or comprehensive <br />than the minimum Federal requirements. In such cases, the more <br />restrictive criteria take precedence and the State (or other <br />jurisdictional agency) will be able to explain them. <br /> <br />1.2 Authority and Acknowledgments <br /> <br />The sources of authority for this Flood Insurance Study are the <br />National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 and the Flood Disaster <br />Protection Act of 1973. <br /> <br />The hydrologic and hydraulic analyses for this study were <br />performed for the Type 19 Flood Insurance Study for the <br />unincorporated areas of Douglas County, Colorado (Reference 1). <br />
