1 <br /> • Wetland enhancement - There appears to be an opportunity to include wetland <br /> enhancement into the existing Reclamation Plan. Manmade wetland areas could reduce <br /> the magnitude or need of any required interior stormwater drainage system. <br /> • Detention structure - The topography of the Flatiron Property and downstream floodplain <br /> lands afford the opportunity for on-site detention to reduce downstream <br /> flood hazards and flood flows. <br /> • Flood awareness programs - Nonstructural mitigation opportunities exist to reduce flood <br /> risks and losses. These measures include warning systems, flood insurance, <br /> floodproofing, relocation, etc. <br /> • : Master Drainage Development Plan - The 1973 South Boulder Creek Basin and <br /> Floodplain Master Plan is outdated and a new plan should be considered by the local <br /> jurisdictions. The subject site can be included in the formulation of acceptable flood <br /> mitigation measures for the stream. <br /> CONCLUSIONS <br /> On or before October 16, 1996, we will provide the University of Colorado at Boulder <br /> with our conclusions and any recommendations under a separate cover. That letter will include <br /> any additional findings as presented in the Taggart Floodplain re-analysis of the Love's fmdings, <br /> and comments on items 13, 14, and 15 as noted in this document. No comments will be offered <br /> on items 3, 6, 7, and 12. An overview on the magnitude of the flood risk to the site will be <br /> provided. <br /> Sinc ely, <br /> Larry .
