How was the flood stage developed?

Existing models were used for this gauge.

Certainty of flood stage accuracy?

We have 95% confidence in the model results.

The model was developed by the Corps of Engineers and has possibly been modified by others. We updated a replaced bridge.     

Future Efforts

The FC District may send postcard information to properties along the creek. This could include information on how they can help fine-tune the flood stage by reporting where and when flooding is experienced.
