There are also a few critical facilities, including one school and several fire <br />stations with footprints within or very near the mapped 100-year flood plains and most <br />of the water and wastewater treatment plans are located in or near mapped <br />floodplains. <br /> <br />Data maintained by the Lane Council of Governments show 110,807 addresses within <br />the Eugene-Springfield Metro Plan area. Of these, 4,460 fall within the mapped 1 <br />year flood plains and 230 are within the mapped floodways. Thus, about 4% and <br />0.2% of the structures in the Eugene-Springfield Metro Area have footprints within the <br />mapped 100wear flood plains or floodways, respectively. There are about 1170 miles <br />of streets and roads in the Metro Plan area, of which about 61 miles lie within the 100- <br />year flood plains and 5 miles of which lie within the mapped floodways. <br /> <br />To quantify the level of flood hazard by these properties and others within the mapped <br />floodplains, it is necessary to determine the elevations of these structures. Only by <br />determining the first floor elevation of each of these potentially flood-prone structures, <br />can the level of flood hazard (frequency and severity of flooding) be calculated <br />accurately. Acquiring such elevation data is recommended as a high priority. <br /> <br />Public Review Draft: August 6, 2004 6-11 <br /> <br /> <br />
