SUPPLEMENTARY NOTES 14. ABSTRACT The Delaware River Basin Commission (DRBC) engaged the Hydrologic Engineering Center (HEC), along with the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), and the National Weather Service (NWS), in the development of a flood analysis model for the Delaware River Basin. The flood analysis model was developed to evaluate the existing reservoirs for flood mitigation and provide data to evaluate the effects of various reservoir operating alternatives on flooding locations downstream of the reservoirs. HEC in coordination with DRBC, USGS and NWS created the HEC-ResSim model of the Delaware River Basin. The purpose of this report is to describe the reservoir modeling and flow routing, focusing primarily on the aspects or features the modelers will need to be aware of as further alternatives are developed. 15.

TOWN PROFILE The Town of Bovina is located in the eastern central portion of Delaware County. Hamlets within the Town include Bovina and Bovina Center1. The Town covers approximately 42 square miles2. According to the U.S. Census, the 2010 population for the Town was 6333. State Route 28 bisects the southern portion of the Town and connects the Town to other parts of the County1. The relief of the Town of Bovina was formed by glaciers and is characterized by both steep slopes and depressions. The Town is part of the glaciated low plateau section of the Appalachian Plateau Province. The Town of Bovina lies entirely within the Delaware River Basin. Most of the Town drains into the Little Delaware River, which is a tributary to the New York City-owned Cannonsville Reservoir. Small areas in the southern portion of the Town, and along the eastern ridge drain into the Pepacton Reservoir1. Hazard Vulnerabilities in the Town The following section discusses vulnerabilities from high-ranked hazards within the Town of Bovina. Complete profiles of all hazards of concern are included in Section 5 of this Plan.

  • Section 5.4.3 Flood Profile
    SECTION 5.4.3: RISK ASSESSMENT – FLOOD 5.4.3 FLOOD This section provides a profile and vulnerability assessment for the flood hazard. HAZARD PROFILE This section provides profile information including description, location, extent, previous occurrences and losses and the probability of future occurrences. Description Floods are one of the most common natural hazards in the U.S. They can develop slowly over a period of days or develop quickly, with disastrous effects that can be local (impacting a neighborhood or community) or regional (affecting entire river basins, coastlines and multiple counties or states) (Federal Emergency Management Agency [FEMA], 2010). Most communities in the U.S. have experienced some kind of flooding, after spring rains, heavy thunderstorms, coastal storms, or winter snow thaws (George Washington University, 2001). Floods are the most frequent and costly natural hazards in New York State in terms of human hardship and economic loss, particularly to communities that lie within flood prone areas or flood plains of a major water source. As defined in the NYS HMP, flooding is a general and temporary condition of partial or complete inundation on normally dry land from the following: Riverine flooding, including overflow from a river channel, flash floods, alluvial fan floods, dam- break floods and ice jam floods; Local drainage or high groundwater levels; Fluctuating lake levels; Coastal flooding; Coastal erosion (NYS HMP 2011) Unusual and rapid accumulation or runoff of surface waters from any source; Mudflows (or mudslides); Collapse or subsidence of land along the shore of a lake or similar body of water caused by erosion, waves or currents of water exceeding anticipated cyclical levels that result in a flood as defined above (Floodsmart.gov, 2012); Sea Level Rise; or Climate Change (USEPA, 2012).
