<overview>
<dsoverv>In 1997, the City of St. George contracted with CH2MHILL consultants in association with JE Fuller Hydrology &amp; Geomorphology, Inc. to conduct a river stability study of the Virgin and Santa Clara Rivers and Fort Pearce Wash in the vicinity of St. George (CH2MHILL, 1997). A principal result of the study was the delineation of erosion-hazard zones along the stretches of the drainages studied.
An erosion-hazard zone as defined by CH2MHILL (1997) is a "land area adjoining a body of water or adjacent to or located partially or wholly within a delineated flood plain which due to soil instability, is likely to suffer flood-related erosion damage." Erosion-hazard zones are independent of FIRMS 100-year flood zones, and are intended to prevent damage from erosion during flooding, "whether or not the property is located in a FIRMS 100-year flood zone" (CH2MHILL, 1997).
Erosion-hazard zones are based chiefly on a geomorphic analysis of river behavior over time, and are determined through a combination of air photo interpretation, field observations, geology and soils mapping, and consideration of the location and design of structures in active stream channels including bridges, water diversion dams, and channel stabilization structures.
The City of St. George incorporated the erosion-hazard zones into their Flood Damage Prevention Ordinance in 1999 along with a requirement that structures built within the zones incorporate erosion-hazard-mitigation measures.
The Flood-Hazard Map (plate 3) prepared for this study includes the boundaries of the erosion-hazard zones established for the Virgin and Santa Clara Rivers and Fort Pearce Wash (JE Fuller Hydrology &amp; Geomorphology, Inc., 2005, 2007a, 2007b). The erosion-hazard zone boundaries for selected other areas in Washington County (JE Fuller/Hydrology &amp; Geomorphology, Inc., 2007c) were not available in digital format. Only one small area along Sand Hollow Wash covered in the JE Fuller Hydrology &amp; Geomorphology, Inc. (2007c) study lies within the St. George - Hurricane metropolitan area.</dsoverv>
