They are not to be construed or used as a regulatory tool.  Further, floodplain and valley bottom widths within urban areas that reflect the broader geomorphic floodplain are inherently difficult to ascertain; therefore, the linkage between topographic data and floodplain widths in channelized streams is limited and will require refinement over time.</div>
