This process includes <br />the determination of reaches, ?lood Hazard Factors, and flood insurance <br />Zone designations for each flooding source studied in detail affecting <br />the Town of Eagle. <br /> <br />5.1 Reach Determinations <br /> <br />~eaches are defined as lengths of watercourses having relatively <br />the same flood hazard, based on the average weighted difference in <br />water-surface elevations between the 10- and laO-year floods. This <br />difference does not have a variation greater than that indicated in <br />the following table for more than 20 percent of the reach: <br /> <br />9 <br />
