<br />
<br />~ ~~ ~lete estimate of damages is for the two most recent floods.
<br />caused by the 1981 and 1982 floods were made by
<br />C4'4 ............., o~ t..."tt dAE:'4ge
<br />
<br />.........c...~ J'4:-':..l41l1.
<br />
<br />~ese daMage estimates mainly involve public property, since
<br />
<br />~
<br />
<br />~~~ ..t. con~cted for the City or State. Information on damage to private
<br />
<br />~~~~1 :. not as readily available. Estimates of private damage were found
<br />
<br />,., ~A 1961 flood in the July 1982 Plain Dealer, the local newspaper, which
<br />
<br />
<br />~~,>o< private damages totaling $36,000. During the 1982 flood, an esti-
<br />
<br />...~ '0 r4aidanceS and 12 businesses experienced significant damage. These
<br />
<br />
<br />~.~~~. ~r. costly related to debris, mud and water accumulation in ba~ements
<br />
<br />a~ ~d-level floors. Therefore, damages were mostly nonstructural. An
<br />
<br />..t~..~. o! $2,000 per residence and $5,000 per business as the average damage
<br />
<br />
<br />U ...._d reasonable.
<br />
<br />~&ble 3.5 presents the damages for these two floods. Damage totals are
<br />
<br />'I~.OOO for the 1981 flood and $360,000 for the 1982 flood. These values do
<br />
<br />"
<br />
<br />~
<br />"
<br />
<br />&Ot lnclude the loss of revenue to businesses that were either closed or busi-
<br />e... reduoed because of the flood. Damages to the flumes are also not
<br />~~~ud~d. since these have accumulated over the years and it would be mislead-
<br />,~~ to attribute damges to anyone flood. Annual flume repair costs to the
<br />Ct,y of Ouray are listed in Table 3.6. These were obtained from the City
<br />Clor~. Repair costs have greatly increased in the last ten years, and they
<br />con ~ expected to continue to rise because of the rapid deterioration of the
<br />wAlls and channel bottom due to aging and recent floods.
