Problems are derived through MHFD's planning process via a review of previously completed analyses, evaluations, and assessments; these include:<\/SPAN><\/P> Stream assessments<\/SPAN><\/P><\/LI> Hydrologic analyses<\/SPAN><\/P><\/LI> Hydraulic modeling and flood mapping<\/SPAN><\/P><\/LI> Geomorphic assessments and fluvial hazard mapping<\/SPAN><\/P><\/LI> Vegetative community mapping and assessments<\/SPAN><\/P><\/LI> Community values assessments and corridor studies<\/SPAN><\/P><\/LI><\/UL> From each of these assessments, underlying observations and concerns are identified and the planner ultimately decides if these elevate to the level of a problem.<\/SPAN><\/P> Problems are categorized into the following three Problem Types:<\/SPAN><\/P> Flood Hazard \u2013 Problems associated with flood waters or fluvial (erosion) hazards that may pose safety or risk concerns related to people, property (structures, utilities, and infrastructure), and the environment today.<\/SPAN><\/P><\/LI> Stream Conditions \u2013 Problems associated with a stream\u2019s condition and its performance related to the Five Elements (hydrology, hydraulics, geomorphology, vegetation, and community values). This Problem Type does not pose a safety risk to people, property, or the environment.<\/SPAN><\/P><\/LI> Watershed Change \u2013 Problems associated with changes in runoff patterns, runoff quantities, or design rainfall that may pose safety or risk concerns related to people, property, and the environment and/or cause adverse impacts to stream conditions due to changes within the watershed or climate.<\/SPAN><\/P><\/LI><\/UL> Last Updated: July 2025<\/SPAN><\/P> For questions or comments please email gis@mhfd.org.<\/SPAN><\/P> Related Datasets:<\/SPAN><\/P> Proposed Actions<\/SPAN><\/P><\/LI> Problem Groups<\/SPAN><\/P><\/LI><\/UL><\/DIV><\/DIV><\/DIV>",
