This project will enhance the community’s floodplain data through a restudy and updating of floodplain maps for Leon Creek, Salado Creek, and selected Medina River tributaries within Bexar County. The updates will incorporate current land use, topographic data, updated rainfall data, using FEMA standards to update the inventory of models developed as part of FEMA’s Map Modernization Program. The objective is to develop and support flood hazard data through completing technical risk analysis and mapping activities.
