Flood Hazard Analysis, Folsom Dam Central Valley Project, California
The primary objective of this study is to develop an estimate of peak discharge frequency of the American River at Folsom Dam in the annual probability range (for dam safety). The primary concern is floods with annual probabilities generally in the range greater than 0.001 to 0.00001 (1 in 1,000 to 1 in 10,000) (USBR, 1999). This peak discharge frequency information is combined with historical hydrographs to develop probabilistic hydrographs based on paleoflood information.
