Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hydrologic Aspects of on-Site Retention Systems for Urban Storm Runoff The solution to the flood protection problem in these cases has taken on an added dimension in the past year as a consequence of the Federal Flood Insurance program. In those communities and local jurisdictions which have accepted the program, the one-in-one-hundred year frequency storm event flood stage becomes the criterion for establishing floor elevations for convention ally designed buildings. The combination of fill at the building site and retention (soil storage plus retention ponds plus floodable open space) must be sufficient to keep the one-in-one-hundred year flood stage below the first floor elevation of homesites.
