Please note that the City of Watertown is geographically located in Dodge and Jefferson Counties; the City of Whitewater is geographically located in Jefferson and Walworth Counties, Village of Cambridge is geographically located in Dane and Jefferson Counties; and the Village of Lac La Belle is geographically located in Jefferson and Waukesha counties; only the portion of these cities within Jefferson County are shown in this FIS. This FIS aids in the administration of the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 and the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973. This FIS has developed flood risk data for various areas of the county that will be used to establish actuarial flood insurance rates. This information will also be used by Jefferson County to update existing floodplain regulations as part of the Regular Phase of the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP), and will also be used by local and regional planners to further promote sound land use and floodplain development. Minimum floodplain management requirements for participation in the NFIP are set forth in the Code of Federal Regulations at 44 CFR, 60.3. In some States or communities, floodplain management criteria or regulations may exist that are more restrictive or comprehensive than the minimum Federal requirements. In such cases, the more restrictive criteria take precedence and the State or other jurisdictional agency will be able to explain them. 1.2 Authority and Acknowledgments The sources of authority for this FIS are the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 and the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973. This FIS was prepared to include the unincorporated areas of, and incorporated communities within, Jefferson County in a countywide format.

  • The Streams of Time: the History of Channelization in Dane County's
    The Streams of Time: The History of Channelization in Dane County’s Riparian Systems and the Hope for Healing Authored by Claire Kuettner, Marielle Milligan, and Kyle Watter The University of Wisconsin - Madison, Department of Geography Geography Undergraduate Colloquium December 16, 2017 Abstract: Water is, and likely will always be, both a celebrated and fervently contested natural resource. Rivers have been both a basis for development of civilization and a victim of that development. Dane County, Wisconsin is no different, with streams both near cities and in the midst of farmlands whose natural bends and meanders have been forced off their natural course by the pressures imposed by urbanization and irrigation. This study defines the timeline of channelization in and the threats this poses to the ecological health of Dane County’s stream systems from 1836 to 2013. The 10 streams that were investigated all faced varying levels of channelization, despite their different lengths and settings within the county, exemplifying that waterway alterations have known no bounds in the past. However, actions taken by several organizations and government officials indicate that there is hope for the healing of these damaged systems. Introduction In a country where nature has been so lavish and where we have been so spendthrift of indigenous beauty, to set aside a few rivers in their natural state should be considered an obligation. Frank Church, U.S. Senate sponsor of the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act Whether for recreation, transportation, or irrigation, it is always the hope of people settling in a new area that a reliable water source is near by.

  • City of Waterlooa GREEN and HEALTHY
    City of Waterloo A GREEN AND HEALTHY COMMUNITY COMPREHENSIVE PLAN adopted August 7, 2008 Vandewalle & Associates City of Waterloo Comprehensive Plan The City of Waterloo: A Green and Healthy Community The City of Waterloo intends to become a Green and Healthy Community. Being a Green and Healthy community means taking a system-wide perspective for resolving community issues and promoting community growth and health. The color green is symbolic of growth. The following components of a Green and Healthy community are addressed and reinforced throughout this Comprehensive Plan Advancing each of these components will be a long-term and on-going endeavor. Environmental Health Waterloo’s viability relies on the health of its natural systems. The quality of the water we drink and the air we breathe as well as the integrity of the soil, natural areas, and wildlife populations provide the essential foundation for economic, social, and personal health. In Waterloo, environmental health also helps to define the community’s sense of place. The City is defined, linked, and bounded by natural features like the wetlands, the Maunesha River, natural and wildlife areas, and wooded drumlins. Paying attention to how growth and development affects these resources, and how these resources are an asset to community growth, will contribute significantly to the achievement of Waterloo’s future vision. Throughout this Plan, the symbol will identify policies, programs, recommendations, and strategies that specifically advance environmental health. Economic Health Economic health in Waterloo is defined by the availability of opportunities for residents to efficiently meet their day-to-day employment, service, shopping, and entertainment demands within the community.
