Analysis of growth rates of residential land values on and near the regulated flood plain

Creator:: Warnick, Larry James
Abstract:: Flood plain regulations are one of six major adjustments used to cope with flood hazard in the United States. This adjustment was essentially neglected in the national flood hazard policies until Congress enacted the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968. The implementation of regulations, as called for in the Act,...

Grazing impacts on bacterial water quality Alsea Ranger District, 1981

Creator:: Peterson, Stacia L.
Abstract:: During the 1981 grazing season four sets offecal coliform (FC) concentration data were collected from streams on sheep grazed clear cut units on the Alsea Ranger District of the Siuslaw National Forest. The objective of the study was to access bacterial water quality impacts from sheep grazing. Sample sites were...

Oregon's critical ground water areas: a case study investigation

Creator:: Hicks, Mark Paul
Abstract:: Oregon's critical ground water area program was designed to protect the integrity of ground water supplies under conditions of sustainable yield. In areas where the demand for water exceeds the rate of natural recharge, wells experience declining water levels. If allowed to continue, this could eventually lead to severe social...

River restoration: active vs. passive restoration efforts, Alder Creek example

Creator:: Keating, Stephen
Abstract:: The practice of river and stream restoration has increased with heightened environmental concerns and awareness. Many of these projects use structural modifications in an attempt to mimic natural landscapes. These structural modifications represent an active approach to river and stream restoration. Active restoration projects are well funded and extensively constructed....

A study of aquifer protection : the Spokane case

Creator:: Moon, George Edmund Jr
Abstract:: This case study of the Spokane Valley-Rathdrum Prairie aquifer, deals with the evolution of water quality protection. A number of institutional efforts on multijurisdictional levels have established a piecemeal approach for this aquifer's protection. Federal legislation includes designation as a 'Sole Source' aquifer under sec. 1424(e) of SDWA, and 1...

The use of riparian open space as an alternative to structural flood control measures in the United States

Creator:: Olson, Thomas
Abstract:: Annual flood damages continue to rise in the United States in spite of massive investments in flood control structures since 1936. These increased losses can be attributed, in part, to the inherent Limitations in scope and nature of traditional "structural" approaches to flood control. Acquisition of flood plain lands is...

Management conflicts in the Bull Run Reserve, Oregon

Creator:: Mah, Walter Jei
Abstract:: Bull Run Reserve was used as a case study of conflicts in management. The Bull Run Watershed supplies the Portland Metropolitan area with its water. Conflicting goals led to various management decisions. Sustained yield logging was allowed within the watershed. Concern that continued logging would lead to increased turbidity and...

Analyzing the impact of flood plain regulations upon residential land values: The North Albany case study

Creator:: Turner, Michael Frank
Abstract:: Land use regulation as a nonstructural method of flood damage mitigation has proven to be a controversial measure due, among other things, to suspected adverse impacts upon residential land values. Little evidence, however, has been gathered to substantiate this claim. This study attempts to analyze the relationship between flood plain...

An analysis of the impact of floodplain regulations on residential land values: the Oak Grove, Oregon case study

Creator:: Brainerd, Richmond T.
Abstract:: Flood damage mitigation by means of land use regulations, as mandated by the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, has been controversial and slow in implementation, in part due to the conjecture that residential land values will be adversely affected in the regulated areas. There has been relatively little research...
