Abstract

This special flood hazard information report covers the Zacharais Creek from its confluence with Skippack Creek at Skippack Township to the study limit at Morris Road, Upper Gwynedd Township, a distance of 4.8 miles. The hydrology, hydraulics and drainage areas of the creek are described. The data also include peak flows for the 10, 50, 100 year floods, rise and duration of flooding and flood profiles. The information given within the scope of this report should be considered for its historical value. Since the publication of this report other flood insurance studies have been undertaken and should also be consulted for current information. (Author)
