Utah Great Salt Lake Shoreline Flooding

As part of the rapid growth being experince in central Utah, Utah needs an accurate assement of the flood conditions expected from the Great Salt Lake. Previous flood insurance studies prepared by the FEMA and other flood plain studies have been outdated by more current hydrologic data. The FPMS attempted to incorporate the most current information concerning lake stages, wind impact analyses, and physical constraints present in the study area. Changes to these features could result in changes to the data presented on the flooded area mapping. However, prudent use of this information with any proposed future needs should result in a consistent coordinated land use application functional to the specific requirements of the community involved. This dataset was created for the purpose of the FPMS report. The data can be used to display and analysis at 1:24000 scale.
