Dear Chairman Dunbar :
The Colorado Water Conservation Board at its regular
meeting on November 1, 1978, approved the enclosed resolutions
designating floodplain areas subject to an intermediate regional
flood (100-year flood or 1 percent chance flood) in your juris-
diction. The floodplain is described in Section 24-65. 1-103 (7) ,
Colorado Revised Statutes 1973 (1976 Supp. ) , as "an area adjacent
to a stream, which area is subject to flooding as a result of the
occurrence of an intermediate regional flood. "
On February 26, 1975, the Colorado Water Conservation
Board adopted a model floodplain regulation. We urge local
jurisdictions to adopt floodplain zoning and land use regulations
under the authorities granted by the enclosed resolutions.
Should you have any questions, or if we can be of
further assistance, please contact our office.
Sincerely yours,
LARRY F. LAN , P. E.-
Chief, Floo Control
and Conservation Section
