Reconnaissance Report, Washoe Valley at Elko, Nevada.

摘要

The Elko area has experienced flooding from winter rain on snow and/or snowmelt, spring snowmelt, and summer cloudbursts. Due to significant population growth in flood prone areas, the city of Elko by letter dated April 23, 1986 (Attachment E), requested a reconnaissance study and indicated willingness to consider further cost sharing of flood control improvements. There have been requests from the Nevada congressional representative for help in resolving the flood problems in Elko. This report is in response to those requests.
