Lumber River, North Carolina & South Carolina. Special Flood Hazard Information Report.
Abstract
This report has been developed to fill the need for flood information at various locations along Lumber River. The study was initiated as a result of a request from the State of North Carolina for floodway mapping in the vicinities of Lumberton, Boardman and Fairbluff, North Carolina. Various other requests indicated the need for information along the entire reach of Lumber River from the mouth to the town of Lumberton. Flood information within the corporate limits of Lumberton has been developed by the Corps of Engineers under contract for the Federal Insurance Administration and will be published in a separate report. Flood information presented in this report will not conflict with data which will be presented in the Lumberton Flood Insurance Report. No other flood insurance studies have been completed or are in progress which will affect the study area covered in this report. In the future, some of this land is likely to be considered for industrial sites, waste treatment facilities and other uses. Knowledge of the flooding potential is an important factor in selecting, financing and insuring various types of development.
