This Flood Insurance Study (FIS) may not contain all data available within the repository. It is advisable to contact the community repository for any additional data. Selected Flood Insurance Rate Map panels for the community contain information that was previously shown separately on the corresponding Flood Boundary and Floodway Map panels (e.g., floodways, cross sections). In addition, former flood hazard zone designations have been changed as follows: Old Zone New Zone A1 through A30 AE B X C X The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) may revise and republish part or all of this FIS report at any time. In addition, FEMA may revise part of this FIS report by the Letter of Map Revision process, which does not involve republication or redistribution of the FIS report. Therefore, users should consult with community officials and check the Community Map Repository to obtain the most current FIS report components.

There is a nice day hike at the day park across the road from the camping area. You need a Discovery pass to park at the picnic area. The trail starts out at the far north side of the park and follows up the Tilton River for several miles. You can see the river in several spots and hike down to it and even swing on a rope out into it if you are adventuresome. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWS9ps17UCU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XcSplfV8-vM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHFWHC0QCXc http://www.americanwhitewater.org/content/River/detail/id/3411 Mt.

  • Hydro Electric Power
    Autumn Moorcroft Environmental Health Russ Lidman Summary All around the world there are many different ways to produce power and electricity, but which is the best way to do so? When trying to determine the best option one has to think about many different factors. One has to think about people; how many people will this new resource benefit? Will this resource affect the surrounding towns we are producing near? Also one has to look at it in more of an environmental stand point and ask, “Is this the best resource for the town, county, state, or even the Nation or World?” one will also ask is this harming many species or is this beneficial. What one is doing when researching different resources for electricity is weighing the Pros and Cons. This is exactly what I am doing in this paper for Hydroelectric Power. More specifically I am weighing the pros and cons of two Dams in Lewis County to see how these dams have been harmful or beneficial. Hydro Electric Power 1 Introduction Hydro Electric Power is one of the leading suppliers of energy in Washington State, producing 75% of its power (Energy development technical assistance,2016). Due to hydroelectric power being a major source of energy for Washington State, the local communities in Lewis County have been directly affected by the Mossyrock Dam. Is hydroelectric power the best option of energy production? Do the positives outweigh the negatives? This paper will look at how hydroelectric power has affected Washington State; in particular how the Mossyrock and Mayfield Dams in Lewis County have affected the community, along with its fish and wildlife.
