Abstract The flood plains were created using the USACE Engineering Research Development Center – AutoRoute hydraulic modeling software. AutoRoute utilizes a steady-state, normal flow solver, making AutoRoute incapable of assessing some of the more typical, yet complex, hydraulic phenomena, such as backwater effects. The floodplains were developed to rapidly assess the increased flood risk that is generally associated with post-wildfire hydrology or large changes to a watershed from a wildfire. The floodplains are intended to be used as a tool by flood disaster responders and other officials so they can prepare resources for a potential post-wildfire flood event. The limits of flooding shown should only be used as a guideline for emergency planning and response actions. A detailed hydrologic and hydraulic calibration effort was not completed to validate the results of this assessment.
