The types of information to consider include: a. Watershed, land use (existing and expected future), and soils map. b. Flood histories and high water mark elevations, descriptions and performance data for existing drainage systems. c. Utility plans and descriptions. d. Existing right-of-way and property boundary information for easements. e. Federal, state, and local regulations. B. Agency Coordination: This may involve coordination with internal offices as well as regulatory and other invested agencies.
