HAZUS-MH® Riverine Flood Model Validation Study: Utah
This report presents the findings of a FEMA validation study of the HAZUS-MH Riverine Flood Model. It is based on a loss event that occurred in St. George, Utah on January 9-11, 2005, which took one life and damaged 28 homes along the Santa Clara River. The validation study assessed the performance of the HAZUS loss model along both the Santa Clara and Virgin Rivers in the St. George, Utah, area. HAZUS is a very useful tool to help model flood boundaries and estimate economic and social losses. Provided accurate event flow discharges are available through accurate forecasting, at gages or other known locations along the reach of interest, HAZUS can help provide timely flood boundary and loss-estimate information before, during, or after a flood.
