FLOOD INSURANCE STUDY ROCK COUNTY [AND INCORPORATED AREAS] | |||
==1.0 INTRODUCTION== | |||
1.1 Purpose of Study This Flood Insurance Study (FIS) revises and updates information on the existence and severity of flood hazards in the geographic area of Rock County, including the Cities of Beloit, Brodhead, Edgerton, Evansville, Janesville and Milton; the Villages of Clinton, Footville and Orfordville; and the unincorporated areas of Rock County (referred to collectively herein as Rock County), and aids in the administration of the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 and the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973. This study has developed flood-risk data for various areas of the community that will be used to establish actuarial flood insurance rates and to assist the community in its efforts to promote sound floodplain management. Minimum floodplain management requirements for participation in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) are set forth in the Code of Federal Regulations at 44 CFR, 60.3. | |||
Please note that the City of Edgerton is geographically located in Rock and Dane Counties. Also, the City of Brodhead is geographically located in Rock and Green Counties. The City of Edgertons special flood areas are included in its entirety in this FIS report. The flood-hazard information for the City of Brodhead is for information purposes only. See separately published FIS report and Flood Insurance Rate Map. | |||
In some states or communities, floodplain management criteria or regulations may exist that are more restrictive or comprehensive than the minimum Federal requirements. In such cases, the more restrictive criteria take precedence and the State (or other jurisdictional agency) will be able to explain them. | |||
1.2 Authority and Acknowledgments The sources of authority for this FIS are the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 and the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973. | |||

2 by Wisconsin DNR. The hydraulic analyses for these same streams in addition to Rock River, Raccoon Creek, Unnamed Tributaries 1 & 2 to Raccoon Creek, East Fork Raccoon Creek, Unnamed Tributary to East Fork Raccoon Creek was performed by Gannett Fleming, for the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), under Contract No. NMF00000316. | |||
Mapping done countywide was performed by Gannett Fleming. This work was completed in May 2006. | |||
The hydrologic and hydraulic analyses for the following streams were done by Owen Ayres and Associates, Inc., for FEMA under Contract H-3805 completed in May 1979: Yahara River, Otter Creek, Marsh Creek, Sugar River, Turtle Creek, Unnamed Tributary 1 and 2 to Turtle Creek, Spring Brook (Janesville) and Bass Creek from Footville Road to its mouth. The hydrologic analyses for the Rock River, Raccoon Creek, Unnamed Tributary 1 & 2 to Raccoon Creek, East Fork Raccoon Creek, Unnamed Tributary to East Fork Raccoon Creek done under this same contract was incorporated into the new 2006 hydraulic study. | |||
The hydrologic and hydraulic analyses for Allen Creek above the Lake Leota Dam were performed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Soil Conservation Service (SCS), as reported in a Flood Hazard Study, City of Evansville, Rock County, Wisconsin in January 1984. The hydrologic analysis done in that study was used in the 2006 hydraulic study. | |||
The projection used in the preparation of this map was Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) zone 16. The horizontal datum was NAD83, GRS1980 spheroid. Differences in datum, spheroid, projection or UTM zones used in the production of FIRMs for adjacent jurisdictions may result in slight positional differences in map features across jurisdiction boundaries. These differences do not affect the accuracy of this FIRM. | |||

Unnamed Tributary in Union Township, from Union Township southern limits to just south of County Highway C Approximate analyses were used to study those areas having low development potential or minimal flood hazards. This was done by overlaying effective zone A floodplains over 10-foot contours to approximate flood elevations. These approximated elevations were then laid over year 2000 terrain data for a revised flood boundary. The scope and methods of study were proposed to, and agreed upon, by FEMA and the various affected communities. | |||
2.2 Community Description Rock County, located in south-central Wisconsin, is bordered on the west by Green County, on the north by Dane and Jefferson Counties, on the east by Walworth County, and on the south by Winnebago and Boone Counties in Illinois. Rock County includes the incorporated areas of Footville, Evansville, Beloit, Janesville, Edgerton, Clinton, and Milton. Rock County's present boundaries were established in 1838. Prior to 1836 the county was a portion of Milwaukee County. Rock County derived its name from the Rock River which the French named Riviere de la Roche. | |||
Rock County has experienced a general increase in population since 1850 when there were 20,750 residents. By 1880 there were 43,220 residents, 113,913 by 1960, 131,970 by 1970, 140,103 in 1990 and 152,307 residents in 2000. Interstate Highway 90 is the major north-south highway. | |||
Joseph Thiebeau, a French-Canadian fur trader, was the first white man to come to the county in 1824. The Rock River valley was under control of a number of Indian tribes until the end of the Black Hawk War in 1832. Following the end of Indian control, permanent settlement began to appear with all the present towns being organized by 1849. Wheat was the first stable crop to be grown in the county; however, due to disease and soil depletion the wheat production decreased, with increased acreage being devoted to oats, hay, and corn. The main farm enterprise in Rock County is dairying with the raising of beef cattle becoming increasingly | |||
7 important. Important crops in the county are field and sweet corn, hay, oats, soybeans, and peas. In addition to farming, Janesville and Beloit have become manufacturing centers for machinery and automobiles. | |||
The climate of Rock County is classified as continental, with long cold winters and warm humid summers. The county has recorded an average annual precipitation of 33 inches, which includes a moderate winter snowfall. Approximately 60 percent of this precipitation occurs within the five month period from May to September. | |||
Thunderstorms occur on the average of 40 times a year. The total annual snowfall has ranged from less than 10 inches to more than 65 inches. Prevailing winds are from the south in the summer and from the west during the winter months. The average wind speed during the windiest months (March, April, and November) is 12 miles per hour. The extreme temperatures recorded are -27 degrees Fahrenheit (F.) and 100 degrees F., exhibiting extreme seasonal variations. | |||
Rock County is underlain entirely by sedimentary sandstones and limestone. The county is divided into three physiographic regions. The northern region is composed of hills and kettles, the result of glacial deposition. The central and southeastern portions of the county are typified by a flat glacial outwash plain. The southwestern corner of the county experienced less glacial activity, which is evidenced by deep valleys cut in sandstone ridges. A majority of the county's river and stream valleys are filled with thick deposits of alluvial sand and gravel. A majority of the soils in Rock County are a result of glacial activity. The county is generally typified by a surface layer of silt loam or loam underlain by glacial till or stratified sand and gravel outwash materials. The exception is the southwest region where shallow surface layers of loam or sandy loam overlay the bedrock Rock County is drained entirely by the Rock River and its tributaries. The Rock River's major tributaries are the Yahara River, the Sugar River, Raccoon Creek and Turtle Creek. The Yahara River and its major tributary, Badfish Creek, drain the northwestern corner of the county along Allen and Marsh Creeks. The Sugar River, Raccoon Creek, and their tributaries drain the southwestern region of the county. | |||
Raccoon Creek confluences with the Sugar River in Illinois which in turn empties into the Rock River. The southeastern portion of the county is drained by Turtle Creek, which confluences with the Rock River in South Beloit. | |||
The floodplains include residential, commercial, industrial, recreational, and agricultural developments. The river floodplains, in general, follow the natural valley limits. | |||
2.3 Principal Flood Problems The streams and rivers in Rock County are subject to flooding throughout the year; however, most flooding has occurred in the spring. These spring floods, the result of a combined snowmelt with moderate amounts of precipitation, can cause | |||
8 flooding which is aggravated due to ice jams throughout the stream reaches. March is the most common month for peak annual discharges based on USGS stream flow records. Even though early spring is the most common time for flooding, the most severe flood on record occurred on Turtle Creek in late April 1973. This flood was due to an intense period of rainfall over the Turtle Creek basin. It had an estimated return period of 150 years. | |||
2.4 Flood Protection Measures There are a number of dams on the rivers and creeks in Rock County; however, none of these dams were designed as flood control structures. The Rock Island COE has published a Phase I General Design Memorandum for a flood damage reduction project on Turtle Creek. That project was terminated due to a lack of economic justification. Rock County originally adopted a state approved floodplain zoning ordinance in November 1974. This Flood Insurance Study is expected to provide data that will be used to update the existing zoning ordinance. A levee system is located on the southwest flood plain of the Sugar River from the State Boundary to about one mile upstream of Nelson Road and on the northeast side from about two miles downstream of Nelson Road to about one mile upstream of Nelson Road. These levees will not provide any protection from the 100-year flood. | |||
3.0 ENGINEERING METHODS For the flooding sources studied by detailed methods in the community, standard hydrologic and hydraulic study methods were used to determine the flood hazard data required for this study. Flood events of a magnitude that are expected to be equaled or exceeded once on the average during any 10-, 50-, 100-, or 500-year period (recurrence interval) have been selected as having special significance for floodplain management and for flood insurance rates. These events, commonly termed the 10-, 50-, 100-, and 500-year floods, have a 10-, 2-, 1-, and 0.2-percent chance, respectively, of being equaled or exceeded during any year. Although the recurrence interval represents the long-term, average period between floods of a specific magnitude, rare floods could occur at short intervals or even within the same year. The risk of experiencing a rare flood increases when periods greater than 1 year are considered. For example, the risk of having a flood that equals or exceeds the 1-percent-annual-chance (100-year) flood in any 50-year period is approximately 40 percent (4 in 10); for any 90-year period, the risk increases to approximately 60 percent (6 in 10). The analyses reported herein reflect flooding potentials based on conditions existing in the community at the time of completion of this study. Maps and flood elevations will be amended periodically to reflect future changes. | |||
3.1 Hydrologic Analyses | |||
9 Hydrologic analyses were carried out to establish peak discharge-frequency relationships for each flooding source studied by detailed methods affecting the community. | |||
Precountywide Analyses Discharge values for the Yahara River at the Rock-Dane county line were taken from the discharge-frequency curve for the Stebbinsville Dam supplied by the USGS. Discharges downstream of the dam to the Badfish Creek confluence were based on a drainage area-discharge relationship for the Stebbinsville Dam. An analysis of Badfish Creek was made to determine its impact on Yahara River flood flows. The discharge-frequency curve for Badfish Creek was based on a statistical analysis of 11 years of record for the nonrecording USGS gage (No. 5-4301) located four miles southwest of Stoughton using a log-Pearson Type III distribution, and on Conger's method. Final values indicated that Badfish Creek controls the flood discharges on the Yahara River downstream of its confluence. | |||
Discharges used in this study are a combination of peak discharges on Badfish Creek plus a portion of the Yahara River flow. | |||
The Rock River was previously studied in Rock County by various governmental agencies. The discharges used in these reports were not adopted due to updated methods of determining discharges. Frequency-discharge relationships for the USGS gage at Afton (No. 543001) with a record from 1914 to present, located on the right bank in Afton and 1.1 miles upstream of Bass Creek, were computed by the log-Pearson Type III distribution. Discharges used were the result of coordination between the States of Wisconsin and Illinois and FEMA. Frequency-discharge curves for other locations on the Rock River were determined by a drainage area comparison to the Afton gage. | |||
Discharge values for Otter, Marsh, and Bass Creek downstream of S. Footville Road were determined by procedures set forth in Project Formulation Hydrology, Technical Release No. 20 (TR-20). Supporting computations were made using Conger's method and a peak discharge-drainage area comparison to Turtle Creek. | |||
Discharges for Allen Creek were computed using the TR-20 method as reported in a Flood Hazard Study for the City of Evansville, Wisconsin. | |||
Flood discharges for Turtle Creek are based on a statistical analysis of the USGS recording station (No. 5-4315) with a period of record from 1939 to the present, located on the left bank of Turtle Creek immediately downstream of the State Highway 140 bridge, 2.7 miles north of Clinton. This analysis, using the log-Pearson Type III distribution, was the result of coordination between the States of Wisconsin and Illinois and was accepted by FEMA. The resulting discharge does not agree with previously accepted values due to the different methodology used and the inclusion of the April 1973 flood. Discharge-frequency curves at other locations were based on a drainage area comparison to the Clinton gage. | |||
10 Unnamed Tributary No. 1 to Turtle Creek and Unnamed Tributary No. 2 to Turtle Creek were studied by Conger's method, TR-20, and discharge-drainage area comparisons. The final discharge-frequency curves are a composite of these three methods. | |||
Discharges for the Sugar River are based on a statistical analysis of the USGS recording station (No. 5-4365) with a period of record from 1914 to the present, located on the left bank of the Sugar River, 1.2 miles southwest of Brodhead. The adopted discharge-frequency relationship was the result of coordination between Wisconsin and Illinois and was accepted by FEMA. Discharges for the study were based on a drainage area-discharge comparison to the Brodhead gage. | |||
Discharges for Raccoon Creek and its two unnamed tributaries were determined by a TR-20 model. Supporting calculations were made by Conger's method and a discharge-drainage area comparison. | |||
Discharges for the East Fork Raccoon Creek and its unnamed tributary were based on a TR-20 model. Supporting computations included a drainage area comparison to a USGS gage (No. 5-4372) with a period of record from 1958 to the present located on the unnamed tributary and Conger's method. | |||
Flood discharges for Spring Brook Beloit and Spring Brook Janesville were based on the results of Conger's method, a drainage comparison, and the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Soil Conservation Service (SCS) method. | |||
The hydrologic analyses for Allen Creek to establish the peak discharge relationships for floods of the 10-, 50-, 100-, and 500-year recurrence intervals were made utilizing the SCS hydrology computer program TR-20. The principal factors considered in this method are soil types, land use, slope of terrain, channel length and rainfall distribution. Four rainfalls were used in the model. Rainfall data for the 10-, 500, 100-, and 500-year return frequency storms were obtained from the U.S. Weather Bureau Technical Paper No. 40. The resulting flows computed in the TR-20 model were compared to U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) gauged watersheds of similar characteristics and were determined to match reasonably well. | |||
Revised Analyses for this Countywide FIS The hydrologic analyses for Bass Creek upstream of S. Footville Road, Blackhawk Creek upstream of State Highway 14, Fisher Creek, Greenbelt Tributaries 1-5, Markham Creek, Morningside Tributary, Saunders Creek, Spring Brook (Beloit), | |||
Unnamed Tributary 1 to Rock River, Unnamed Tributary to Blackhawk Creek and Unnamed Tributary in Turtle Township and all limited detail studies (outlined in section 2.1) were done using the Wisconsin DNR Hydrology Tool extension in ArcView 3.2 and HEC-HMS 2.2.2. | |||
11 The Loss rate method/abstraction used was SCS CN. CN data was based on WiscLand grid. The SCS Unit hydrograph/TR-55 flow path segment method was used. Channel properties were estimated from the 2000 digital terrain model (DTM). Mannings N values were derived from the 2000 orthophoto. Muskingum Cunge was used for routing and channels were based off of the 2000 DTM. | |||
Rainfall distribution curve was developed by SEWRPC for all southeast Wisconsin Counties. Rock County was on the fringe of this region, but it was determined that the curve still applied as the curve included gauge data from Rock County. | |||
24-, 12-, 6-and 3-hour storm durations were run in HEC-HMS to determine the storm with the highest peak flow. The 24-, 12-, 6-and 3-hour rainfall for 10-, 50-and 100-year storms were obtained from the U.S. Weather Bureau Technical Paper No. 40. The 500-year rainfall total was extrapolated based on the previous totals. | |||
There was a storm on August 5, 1998 that approximately measured as a 1 percent annual chance rainfall event. This event was entered into the HEC-HMS models to compare the flow to the 1 percent annual chance peak flow. The values compared favorably. | |||
The stream gauge on a tributary to Fisher Creek (#5430403) was used to verify Fisher Creeks peak value. This was the only stream gauge on any of the studies were new hydrology was performed. | |||

3.2 Hydraulic Analyses Analyses of the hydraulic characteristics of flooding from the sources studied were carried out to provide estimates of the elevations of floods of the selected recurrence intervals. Users should be aware that flood elevations shown on the Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) represent rounded whole-foot elevations and may not exactly reflect the elevations shown on the Flood Profiles or in the Floodway Data Table in the FIS report. Flood elevations shown on the FIRM are primarily intended for flood insurance rating purposes. For construction and/or floodplain management purposes, users are cautioned to use the flood elevation data presented in this FIS report in conjunction with the data shown on the FIRM. | |||
Precountywide Analyses UNINCORPORATED AREAS There were 471 field measured cross sections for the Rock County study, of which 183 were supplied by the COE and the USGS. | |||
The distances between cross sections were obtained from enlarged 1:24000 scale USGS quadrangle maps. | |||
Locations of selected cross sections used in the hydraulic analyses are shown on the Flood Profiles. For stream segments for which a floodway was computed (Section 4.2), selected cross section locations are also shown on the Flood Boundary and Floodway Map. | |||
The channel and overbank roughness factors (Manning's n) were assigned on the basis of field inspection. These range from 0.028 to 0.05 in the channel and 0.04 to 0.15 in the overbanks. | |||
The hydraulic model for Yahara River reflects existing conditions. The powerhouse and dam on the Yahara River, near Fulton, are presently being modified or have future plans for modification. The 18 wicket gates at the powerhouse are operable; however, they are blocked off from flow and were not considered in developing outflow rating curves from the lake. The powerhouse may be fully functional within a year's time, thus affecting the water-surface upstream of the dam. An area of divided flow exists at the Fulton Dam. A small portion of the 100-year flow separates from the main flow and is diverted east of the Fulton Dam through a divergence channel and then back into the Yahara River. | |||
Flows through the divergence channel were taken into account in the hydraulic model. A levee located along the northern side of the channel prevents the diverging flow from overflowing into the flood plain. Hydraulic data upstream of the Stebbinsville Dam were obtained from the Dane County Flood Insurance Study. The river miles for the Yahara River do not agree with previous studies due to updated mapping. | |||
16 | |||
Water-surface elevations were computed using the COE HEC-2 step-backwater computer program. Profiles were determined for the 10-, 50-, 100-, and 500-year floods. Water-surface elevations for the other detailed study streams were started at bank full elevations at the main stem. | |||
Starting water-surface elevations on Blackhawk Creek are the corresponding elevations of Spring Brook at the confluence point. | |||
The starting water-surface elevations for Sugar River match the elevations at the upstream limit of the Winnebago County, Illinois, Flood Insurance Study. | |||
Turtle Creek was studied in combination and coordinated with the Beloit and South Beloit Flood Insurance Studies. Starting water surface elevations were taken from the Beloit Flood Insurance Study. Hydraulic data were also coordinated with the Rock Island COE. Due to the level of detail and lack of data, a possible overflow bypass across Creek Road to the Rock River was not studied by detailed methods. | |||
All flow was assumed to continue downstream on Turtle Creek. Flood profiles were drawn showing computed water-surface elevations for floods of the selected recurrence intervals. | |||
Hydraulic characteristics of stream reaches studied by approximate methods were determined from flood prone area maps and by normal depth analysis. | |||
The hydraulic analyses for Allen Creek were taken from the Flood Hazard Study for the City of Evansville. The flood profiles taken from the report were computed using the SCS WSP-2 computer program. | |||
CITY OF JANESVILLE Cross section data and structure data necessary for this analysis were developed by field survey and bridge data from the COE, Rock Island District, files, City of Janesville data, and use of topographic maps at a scale of 1:2400 with a contour interval of 2 feet for overbank areas. | |||
The procedures used for calculating head losses through bridges and other structures causing constrictions to flow allowed the identification of significant backwater producing structures. | |||
Locations of selected cross sections used in the hydraulic analyses are shown on the Flood Profiles. For stream segments for which a floodway was computed (Section 4.2), selected cross section locations are also shown on the Flood Boundary and Floodway Map. | |||
Overbank roughness factors (Manning's n) for the streams were estimated using engineering judgment and high water data from photographs taken at cross section locations and field observations. Channel roughness factors were estimated by 17 | |||
comparison with table values and the step-by-step procedure for channel n values in Chow's text on open-channel hydraulics and historical high water data. These ranged from 0.028 to 0.033 for channel and 0.04 to 0.09 for overbanks on the Rock River. For Spring Brook and Blackhawk Creek, which are hydraulically continuous, these values varied from 0.035 to 0.070 in the channel and 0.050 to 0.14 for overbanks. | |||
Starting water-surface elevations on Spring Brook were determined using the corresponding 10-year frequency water surface on the Rock River. Starting water-surface elevations on Blackhawk Creek are the elevation of Spring Creek at the confluence point. Water surface elevations were computed using the COE HEC-2 step-backwater computer program CITY OF BELOIT Stream cross sections and structural data for all streams studied in detail were obtained from field survey and the Rock Island District COE. | |||
Roughness coefficients (Manning's n), used in the hydraulic analyses, were based on field observations and engineering judgment, and were provided by the Rock Island District COE. The n values for the Rock River channel range from 0.03 to 0.045 and the overbanks range from 0.055 to 0.085. The n value for the Turtle Creek channel is 0.035 and the overbanks range from 0.05 to 0.075. The n' values for the Spring Brook channel range from 0.03 to 0.07 and the overbanks range from 0.06 to 0.16. | |||
Hydraulic information for Spring Brook was obtained from the Rock County, Wisconsin Flood Insurance Study. | |||
Starting water-surface elevations for the Rock River and Turtle Creek were based on downstream flood profiles obtained from the South Beloit Flood Insurance Study. Starting water surface elevations for Spring Brook were obtained using the slope-area method. Water surface profiles for the various discharge-frequencies were determined using the COE HEC-2 computer program. Flood profiles were drawn showing computed water-surface elevations for floods of the selected recurrence intervals. | |||
CITY OF EDGERTON The cross sections used for the study were obtained from 2-foot contour maps made available by the City. | |||
All bridge elevation data and structural geometry for the backwater analyses of the flooding source studied were obtained by field surveys by the Study Contractor. | |||
The channel soundings were also obtained by field measurement. | |||
Channel roughness factors (Manning's n) used in the hydraulic computations were chosen by engineering judgment and based on field observations of the 18 | |||
streams and floodplain areas. Roughness values for the main channel of Saunders Creek range from 0.035 to 0.04 with floodplain roughness values ranging from 0.06 to 0.11 for all floods. | |||
CITY OF EVANSVILLE Cross section data for Allen Creek were obtained from field survey measurements. | |||
All bridges and culverts were field surveyed to obtain elevation data and structural geometry. | |||
Comparing the 100-year flood elevation with the contour maps, it was discovered that flow would occur over the Chicago and North Western railroad tracks toward the east in an area downstream of Main Street. The water that flows over the tracks does not re-enter Allen Creek until it joins the flow from a drainage basin from the east and enters Allen Creek south of the city. The divided flow was subtracted from the main flow in the channel. | |||
Revised Analyses for this Countywide FIS All new hydraulic models were done by Gannett Fleming using HEC-RAS 3.1.3. | |||
County-wide floodplain delineations were also created by Gannett Fleming using year 2000 Rock County digital terrain data and ArcGIS 9.1. | |||
The distances between all cross sections were obtained by calculating the distance along the stream centerline digitized from the 2000 Rock County orthophoto. | |||
Locations of selected cross sections used in the hydraulic analyses are shown on the Flood Profiles. For stream segments for which a floodway was computed (Section 4.2), selected cross section locations are also shown on the Flood Insurance Rate Map. | |||
The channel and overbank roughness factors (Manning's n) for new studies were assigned on the basis of inspection of the 2000 Rock County orthophoto. | |||
All studies that were redelineated used the previous models n values. | |||
For all new detailed studies (Fisher Creek, Markham Creek, Morningside Trib, Greenbelt Tribs 1-5, Unnamed Trib to Blackhawk Creek, Unnamed Trib 1 to Rock River, Unnamed Trib in Turtle Township and portions of Saunders Creek, Spring Brook-Beloit, Bass Creek and Blackhawk Creek) all bridges and culverts were field surveyed to obtain elevation data and structural geometry. For the following redelineated studies, all bridges in the existing model were verified as the current existing bridges and the 2000 orthophoto was inspected to search for new bridges since the model was created: Rock River, Raccoon Creek, East Fork Raccoon Creek, Unnamed Tribs 1 & 2 to Raccoon Creek, Unnamed Trib to East Fork Raccoon Creek and the remaining portions of Saunders Creek, Spring Brook-Beloit 19 | |||
and Allen Creek. If the DOT had plans for a new bridge, it was entered into the HEC-RAS 3.1.3 model and re-run to get new water surface elevations. | |||
There were no new hydraulic models created for; Yahara River, Otter Creek, Marsh Creek, Turtle Creek, Unnamed Tribs 1 & 2 to Turtle Creek, Sugar River, Spring Brook-Janesville, the downstream-most 1.25 miles of Blackhawk Creek, upstream of the Lake Leota Dam on Allen Creek and below S. Footville Rd. on Bass Creek. The old FIS profile was taken as is and those elevations were mapped on new terrain data. This was done largely for the fact that the original model could not be located on most of these. On the few that an original model could be found, complications including matching the cross sections to new terrain and time constraints were used as the reason why the model was not updated. The only exception to this is that Fulton Dam was taken out of the profile of Yahara River since it has been removed since the last FIS. | |||
The limited detail studies on Lenigan Creek, Lenigan Creek Tribs. 1 & 2, Philhower Road Trib., Unnamed Clinton Trib., South Branch Unnamed Clinton Trib., Unnamed Trib. in Union Township, Milton Ditch and Unnamed Trib. 2 to Rock River were done in the same manner in HEC-RAS 3.1.3 as the new detailed studies. The difference between these two types of studies was that the limited detail studies bridges were not surveyed into mean sea level (MSL). The bridges were measured in relative distances from the top of road. | |||
The 10-year frequency water surface of the Rock River was used as the starting water surface for the following studies: Unnamed Trib. 1 to Rock River, Markham Creek, Fisher Creek and Saunders Creek. | |||
The 100-year frequency water surface elevation at the upstream end of the redelineate reach of Blackhawk Creek was used as the starting water surface elevation for the new detailed reach of Blackhawk Creek. | |||
The 100-year frequency water surface elevation at the upstream end of the redelineate reach of Bass Creek was used as the starting water surface elevation for the new detailed reach of Bass Creek. | |||
The 10-year frequency water surface of Blackhawk Creek was used as the starting water surface for Greenbelt Trib. 1 and Morningside Trib. Greenbelt Tribs. 1-5 were all entered in the same HEC-RAS model and Tribs. 2-5 starting water surface elevations are equal to the 100-year frequency water surface of its receiving stream. | |||
The Unnamed Trib. to Blackhawk Creek was included in the same HEC-RAS model as Blackhawk Creek, so its starting water surface elevation is equal to the 100-year frequency water surface of Blackhawk Creek at the confluence. | |||
20 | |||
Spring Brook (Beloit) has a starting water surface elevation equal to the 10-year frequency water surface of Turtle Creek. | |||
Starting water surface elevation for Unnamed Trib. in Turtle Township was done by normal depth calculation. | |||
Locations of selected cross sections used in the hydraulic analyses are shown on the Flood Profiles (Exhibit 1). For stream segments for which a floodway was computed (Section 4.2), selected cross section locations are also shown on the FIRM (Exhibit 2). | |||
The hydraulic analyses for this study were based on unobstructed flow. The flood elevations shown on the Flood Profiles (Exhibit 1) are thus considered valid only if hydraulic structures remain unobstructed, operate properly, and do not fail. | |||
3.3 Vertical Datum All FIS reports and FIRMs are referenced to a specific vertical datum. The vertical datum provides a starting point against which flood, ground, and structure elevations can be referenced and compared. Until recently, the standard vertical datum in use for newly created or revised FIS reports and FIRMs was the National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929 (NGVD29). With the finalization of the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88), many FIS reports and FIRMs are being prepared using NAVD88 as the referenced vertical datum. | |||
All flood elevations shown in this FIS report and on the FIRM are referenced to NGVD29. Structure and ground elevations in the community must, therefore, be referenced to NGVD29. It is important to note that adjacent communities may be referenced to NAVD88. This may result in differences in Base Flood Elevations (BFEs) across the corporate limits between the communities. | |||
For more information on NAVD88, see the FEMA publication entitled Converting the National Flood Insurance Program to the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (FEMA, June 1992), or contact the Vertical Network Branch, National Geodetic Survey, Coast and Geodetic Survey, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Silver Spring, Maryland 20910 (Internet address http://www.ngs.noaa.gov). | |||
Temporary vertical monuments are often established during the preparation of a flood hazard analysis for the purpose of establishing local vertical control. | |||
Although these monuments are not shown on the FIRM, they may be found in the Technical Support Data Notebook associated with the FIS report and FIRM 21 | |||
for this community. Interested individuals may contact FEMA to access these data. | |||
4.0 FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT APPLICATIONS The NFIP encourages State and local governments to adopt sound floodplain management programs. Therefore, each FIS provides 1-percent-annual-chance (100-year) flood elevations and delineations of the 1-and 0.2-percent-annual-chance (500-year) floodplain boundaries and 1-percent-annual-chance floodway to assist communities in developing floodplain management measures. This information is presented on the FIRM and in many components of the FIS report, including Flood Profiles, Floodway Data Table, and Summary of Stillwater Elevations Table. Users should reference the data presented in the FIS report as well as additional information that may be available at the local map repository before making flood elevation and/or floodplain boundary determinations. | |||
4.1 Floodplain Boundaries To provide a national standard without regional discrimination, the 1-percent-annual-chance flood has been adopted by FEMA as the base flood for floodplain management purposes. The 0.2-percent-annual-chance flood is employed to indicate additional areas of flood risk in the community. For each stream studied by detailed methods, the 1-and 0.2-percent-annual-chance floodplain boundaries have been delineated using the flood elevations determined at each cross section. | |||
Between cross sections, the boundaries were delineated based on the 2000 Rock County digital terrain model. | |||
The 1-and 0.2-percent-annual-chance floodplain boundaries are shown on the FIRM (Exhibit 2). On this map, the 1-percent-annual-chance floodplain boundary corresponds to the boundary of the areas of special flood hazards (Zones A and AE), and the 0.2-percent-annual-chance floodplain boundary corresponds to the boundary of areas of moderate flood hazards. Small areas within the floodplain boundaries may lie above the flood elevations but cannot be shown due to limitations of the map scale and/or lack of detailed topographic data. | |||
For the streams studied by approximate methods, only the 1-percent-annual-chance floodplain boundary is shown on the FIRM (Exhibit 2). | |||

23 4.2 Floodways Encroachment on floodplains, such as structures and fill, reduces flood-carrying capacity, increases flood heights and velocities, and increases flood hazards in areas beyond the encroachment itself. One aspect of floodplain management involves balancing the economic gain from floodplain development against the resulting increase in flood hazard. For purposes of the NFIP, a floodway is used as a tool to assist local communities in this aspect of floodplain management. | |||
Under this concept, the area of the 1-percent-annual-chance floodplain is divided into a floodway and a floodway fringe. The floodway is the channel of a stream, plus any adjacent floodplain areas, that must be kept free of encroachment so that the 1-percent-annual-chance flood can be carried without substantial increases in flood heights. Minimum Federal standards limit such increases to 1 foot, provided that hazardous velocities are not produced. The floodways in this study are presented to local agencies as minimum standards that can be adopted directly or that can be used as a basis for additional floodway studies. | |||
The floodways presented in this FIS report and on the FIRM were computed for certain stream segments on the basis of equal-conveyance reduction from each side of the floodplain. Floodway widths were computed at cross sections. | |||
Between cross sections, the floodway boundaries were interpolated. The results of the floodway computations have been tabulated for selected cross sections (Table3). | |||

The area between the floodway and 1-percent-annual-chance floodplain boundaries is termed the floodway fringe. The floodway fringe encompasses the portion of the floodplain that could be completely obstructed without increasing the water surface elevation of the 1-percent-annual-chance flood more than 1 foot at any point. Typical relationships between the floodway and the floodway fringe and their significance to floodplain development are shown in Figure 1. | |||
Figure 1 - Floodway Schematic 5.0 INSURANCE APPLICATIONS For flood insurance rating purposes, flood insurance zone designations are assigned to a community based on the results of the engineering analyses. These zones are as follows: | |||
Zone A Zone A is the flood insurance risk zone that corresponds to the 1-percent-annual-chance floodplains that are determined in the FIS by approximate methods. Because detailed hydraulic analyses are not performed for such areas, no BFEs or base flood depths are shown within this zone. | |||
Zone AE Zone AE is the flood insurance risk zone that corresponds to the 1-percent-annual-chance floodplains that are determined in the FIS by detailed methods. In most instances, whole-foot BFEs derived from the detailed hydraulic analyses are shown at selected intervals within this zone. | |||
80 | |||
Zone X Zone X is the flood insurance risk zone that corresponds to areas outside the 0.2-percent-annual-chance floodplain, areas within the 0.2-percent-annual-chance floodplain, areas of 1-percent-annual-chance flooding where average depths are less than 1 foot, areas of 1-percent-annual-chance flooding where the contributing drainage area is less than 1 square mile, and areas protected from the 1-percent-annual-chance flood by levees. No BFEs or base flood depths are shown within this zone. | |||
6.0 FLOOD INSURANCE RATE MAP The FIRM is designed for flood insurance and floodplain management applications. | |||
For flood insurance applications, the map designates flood insurance risk zones as described in Section 5.0 and, in the 1-percent-annual-chance floodplains that were studied by detailed methods, shows selected whole-foot BFEs or average depths. | |||
Insurance agents use the zones and BFEs in conjunction with information on structures and their contents to assign premium rates for flood insurance policies. | |||
For floodplain management applications, the map shows by tints, screens, and symbols, the 1-and 0.2-percent-annual-chance floodplains, floodways, and the locations of selected cross sections used in the hydraulic analyses and floodway computations. | |||
The countywide FIRM presents flooding information for the entire geographic area of Rock County. Previously, FIRMs were prepared for each incorporated community and the unincorporated areas of the County identified as flood-prone. | |||
7.0 OTHER STUDIES Flood Insurance Studies have been prepared for the following neighboring Counties in Wisconsin: Green, Dane, Jefferson and Walworth. Flood Insurance Studies have been prepared for the following neighboring Counties in Illinois: Winnebago and Boone. | |||

3 Introduction This report was prepared by the Engineering Division following the June 2008 flood, which exceeded a 100-year flood of the Rock River. The City of Janesville, along with the U.S. Geological Society (USGS), monitored the stretch of the river from Indianford to Afton. Actions taken, such as closures of roads and parks, sandbagging, and power shutoffs, were documented to help decrease future flood damage. Furthermore, issues with wastewater and septic systems, electrical equipment, and general health and safety are addressed. The information compiled in this report provides comprehensive documentation of the events that occurred. This information will assist with emergency preparedness for the next major flood in the future. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers prepared a study of the Rock River through Janesville in 1968. This 2008 report does not attempt to recreate that information; rather, it supplements the Corps study. | |||
City of Janesville, WI - Flood Report | |||
4 USGS River Elevations During the June 2008 flood, two U.S. Geological Society water-stage recording gauges at Indianford and Afton were used in monitoring the river. The use of these two stations allowed for easy comparison to historical flooding events. A detailed history of the Rock Rivers flooding situation is available in the Flood Plain Information report prepared by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers - Rock Island District in June, 1968. | |||
Indianford Station (Upstream Gauge) | |||
The U.S. Geological Society has maintained a water-stage recording gauge at Indianford since May 1975. Located 250 feet upstream from the Indianford Dam and 1.8 miles upstream from the Yahara River, this gauge has a datum of 763.84 above sea level. With the bank full stage at 14, the historical maximum gauge height of 18.32 was recorded during the June 2008 flood - 4.32 above this stage. Data for the Indianford gauge can be obtained at http://waterdata.usgs.gov/nwis/uv?05427570. | |||
Afton Station (Downstream Gauge) | |||
The U.S. Geological Society has maintained a stream gauging station on the Rock River at Afton, WI since January 1914. A water-stage recording gauge was then installed in August 1932 - | |||
located on the west bank of the Rock River approximately 0.8 miles upstream from the intersection with Bass Creek. The Afton gauge is a forecasting station for the National Weather Service. The prediction information provided by the National Weather Service was very helpful in determining the actual impact to the City of Janesville. This information can be accessed at http://www.crh.noaa.gov/ahps2/index.php?wfo=mkx. The datum of this gauge, read at the river bed, is 742.36 above sea level. The bankfull stage at this gauging station is 8.0 ft and the historical maximum gauge height is 13.51 ft, which was observed during the June 2008 flood. This corresponds to 5.51 above bankfull stage - an elevation of 755.87 above sea level. Data for the Afton gauge can be obtained at http://waterdata.usgs.gov/nwis/uv?05430500. | |||
The proximity of the Indianford and Afton gauging stations in relation to the City of Janesville are shown below, in Figure 1. | |||

6 City of Janesville River Monitoring Operations A 25-mile level loop was established with 5 monitoring stations along the Rock River. The monitoring stations were located at the South River Road Bridge, Monterey Dam, Hedberg Public Library, North Traxler Boat Launch, and North River Road. The loop started at S. River Road Bridge and ran in the order listed above (Fig. 2). At each station a level rod, correlated to a USGS elevation, was placed in the water and continuously monitored on an hourly basis until the river showed steady decline in elevation - at which time the monitoring was scaled back to five readings per weekday and three readings per day on the weekend, which was continued until the river returned to its initial elevation reading. As the river rose, the rods at Monterey Dam and N. River Rd. were moved closer to shore because the original rods had become difficult to read (Fig. 5, 12). | |||
Data from these readings is available in full in Appendix B. | |||
Future Recommendations It is recommended that the level at the Monterey Dam be moved to the west side of the dams pedestrian bridge (Fig. 6), as turbulent water on the east side of the dam fluctuates by as much as a tenth of a foot, creating difficulty in obtaining consistent, accurate readings. In addition to calmer water, the rod at this location can be easily accessed throughout the flood because the concrete walkway shown in Figure 5 will not be covered by water. | |||
A change in monitoring location is also recommended at the Library. In the event that the water becomes too turbulent or if water flows over the river wall, readings should then be taken from the inlet in the parking structure under the library (Fig. 8), where the water is at the same elevation as at the river wall. For reference, the elevation at the top of this inlet is 766.35 ft. | |||
Figure 2 identifies the 25-mile loop driven during the river monitoring. Figures 3 - 12 are actual pictures of the five monitoring stations. | |||

13 During the June 2008 flood, river level data was collected from the USGS gauges at both Indianford and Afton, as well as from the five monitoring stations set up by Engineering Division staff along the Rock River. This data, found in full in Appendix B, is illustrated below in Figure 13. | |||
The initial elevation for all stations arbitrarily references zero to account for variance in land topography, creating clear, easy-to-see trends in elevation changes. At any point in time shown on the graph, the true elevation can be calculated by adding the rise from the chart to the initial elevation value found in the key. | |||
Figure 13: Rock River Elevations at Each Station for the 2008 Flood City of Janesville, WI - Flood Report | |||
14 As illustrated in Figure 13, the river does not rise uniformly - rather, it correlates to the width of the river at each station. The width is greatest at the Monterey station; and therefore, the river experienced the least amount of rise at the widest location monitored. When predicting the rivers crest in the future, the rate of rise at the different stations is critical. The maximum elevations and total amount of rise collected during the 2008 flood at each station are listed below, in Table 1. | |||

FLOOD INSURANCE STUDY ROCK COUNTY [AND INCORPORATED AREAS]
1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Purpose of Study This Flood Insurance Study (FIS) revises and updates information on the existence and severity of flood hazards in the geographic area of Rock County, including the Cities of Beloit, Brodhead, Edgerton, Evansville, Janesville and Milton; the Villages of Clinton, Footville and Orfordville; and the unincorporated areas of Rock County (referred to collectively herein as Rock County), and aids in the administration of the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 and the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973. This study has developed flood-risk data for various areas of the community that will be used to establish actuarial flood insurance rates and to assist the community in its efforts to promote sound floodplain management. Minimum floodplain management requirements for participation in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) are set forth in the Code of Federal Regulations at 44 CFR, 60.3.
Please note that the City of Edgerton is geographically located in Rock and Dane Counties. Also, the City of Brodhead is geographically located in Rock and Green Counties. The City of Edgertons special flood areas are included in its entirety in this FIS report. The flood-hazard information for the City of Brodhead is for information purposes only. See separately published FIS report and Flood Insurance Rate Map.
In some states or communities, floodplain management criteria or regulations may exist that are more restrictive or comprehensive than the minimum Federal requirements. In such cases, the more restrictive criteria take precedence and the State (or other jurisdictional agency) will be able to explain them.
1.2 Authority and Acknowledgments The sources of authority for this FIS are the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 and the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973.
The hydrologic analyses for Saunders Creek, Fisher Creek, Markham Creek, Greenbelt Tributaries 1-5, Morningside Tributary, Blackhawk Creek, Unnamed Tributary to Blackhawk Creek, Unnamed Tributary 1 to Rock River, Spring Brook (Beloit), Unnamed Tributary in Turtle Township, Bass Creek above Footville Road, Lenigan Creek, Lenigan Creek Tributaries 1 & 2, Unnamed Clinton Tributary, Unnamed Tributary in Union Township, Philhower Road Tributary, Unnamed Tributary 2 to Rock River, and Milton Ditch was performed 1
2 by Wisconsin DNR. The hydraulic analyses for these same streams in addition to Rock River, Raccoon Creek, Unnamed Tributaries 1 & 2 to Raccoon Creek, East Fork Raccoon Creek, Unnamed Tributary to East Fork Raccoon Creek was performed by Gannett Fleming, for the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), under Contract No. NMF00000316.
Mapping done countywide was performed by Gannett Fleming. This work was completed in May 2006.
The hydrologic and hydraulic analyses for the following streams were done by Owen Ayres and Associates, Inc., for FEMA under Contract H-3805 completed in May 1979: Yahara River, Otter Creek, Marsh Creek, Sugar River, Turtle Creek, Unnamed Tributary 1 and 2 to Turtle Creek, Spring Brook (Janesville) and Bass Creek from Footville Road to its mouth. The hydrologic analyses for the Rock River, Raccoon Creek, Unnamed Tributary 1 & 2 to Raccoon Creek, East Fork Raccoon Creek, Unnamed Tributary to East Fork Raccoon Creek done under this same contract was incorporated into the new 2006 hydraulic study.
The hydrologic and hydraulic analyses for Allen Creek above the Lake Leota Dam were performed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Soil Conservation Service (SCS), as reported in a Flood Hazard Study, City of Evansville, Rock County, Wisconsin in January 1984. The hydrologic analysis done in that study was used in the 2006 hydraulic study.
The projection used in the preparation of this map was Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) zone 16. The horizontal datum was NAD83, GRS1980 spheroid. Differences in datum, spheroid, projection or UTM zones used in the production of FIRMs for adjacent jurisdictions may result in slight positional differences in map features across jurisdiction boundaries. These differences do not affect the accuracy of this FIRM.
1.3 Coordination Information on the coordination for each jurisdiction included in this countywide FIS, as compiled from their previously printed FIS reports, is shown below.
Beloit, City of:
Streams requiring detailed and approximate study were identified at an initial coordination and time and cost meeting attended by representatives of FEMA, the Study Contractor, and the City of Beloit on February 2, 1977. Base maps were obtained from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE), Rock Island District; and the City of Beloit. Flood elevations, flood boundaries, and floodway delineations were determined by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources, the Rock Island District COE, and the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS).
3 On October 16, 1980, the results of the work by the Study Contractor were reviewed and accepted at a final coordination meeting attended by representatives of FEMA, the Study Contractor, and the City of Beloit.
Edgerton, City of:

Unnamed Tributary in Union Township, from Union Township southern limits to just south of County Highway C Approximate analyses were used to study those areas having low development potential or minimal flood hazards. This was done by overlaying effective zone A floodplains over 10-foot contours to approximate flood elevations. These approximated elevations were then laid over year 2000 terrain data for a revised flood boundary. The scope and methods of study were proposed to, and agreed upon, by FEMA and the various affected communities.
2.2 Community Description Rock County, located in south-central Wisconsin, is bordered on the west by Green County, on the north by Dane and Jefferson Counties, on the east by Walworth County, and on the south by Winnebago and Boone Counties in Illinois. Rock County includes the incorporated areas of Footville, Evansville, Beloit, Janesville, Edgerton, Clinton, and Milton. Rock County's present boundaries were established in 1838. Prior to 1836 the county was a portion of Milwaukee County. Rock County derived its name from the Rock River which the French named Riviere de la Roche.
Rock County has experienced a general increase in population since 1850 when there were 20,750 residents. By 1880 there were 43,220 residents, 113,913 by 1960, 131,970 by 1970, 140,103 in 1990 and 152,307 residents in 2000. Interstate Highway 90 is the major north-south highway.
Joseph Thiebeau, a French-Canadian fur trader, was the first white man to come to the county in 1824. The Rock River valley was under control of a number of Indian tribes until the end of the Black Hawk War in 1832. Following the end of Indian control, permanent settlement began to appear with all the present towns being organized by 1849. Wheat was the first stable crop to be grown in the county; however, due to disease and soil depletion the wheat production decreased, with increased acreage being devoted to oats, hay, and corn. The main farm enterprise in Rock County is dairying with the raising of beef cattle becoming increasingly
7 important. Important crops in the county are field and sweet corn, hay, oats, soybeans, and peas. In addition to farming, Janesville and Beloit have become manufacturing centers for machinery and automobiles.
The climate of Rock County is classified as continental, with long cold winters and warm humid summers. The county has recorded an average annual precipitation of 33 inches, which includes a moderate winter snowfall. Approximately 60 percent of this precipitation occurs within the five month period from May to September.
Thunderstorms occur on the average of 40 times a year. The total annual snowfall has ranged from less than 10 inches to more than 65 inches. Prevailing winds are from the south in the summer and from the west during the winter months. The average wind speed during the windiest months (March, April, and November) is 12 miles per hour. The extreme temperatures recorded are -27 degrees Fahrenheit (F.) and 100 degrees F., exhibiting extreme seasonal variations.
Rock County is underlain entirely by sedimentary sandstones and limestone. The county is divided into three physiographic regions. The northern region is composed of hills and kettles, the result of glacial deposition. The central and southeastern portions of the county are typified by a flat glacial outwash plain. The southwestern corner of the county experienced less glacial activity, which is evidenced by deep valleys cut in sandstone ridges. A majority of the county's river and stream valleys are filled with thick deposits of alluvial sand and gravel. A majority of the soils in Rock County are a result of glacial activity. The county is generally typified by a surface layer of silt loam or loam underlain by glacial till or stratified sand and gravel outwash materials. The exception is the southwest region where shallow surface layers of loam or sandy loam overlay the bedrock Rock County is drained entirely by the Rock River and its tributaries. The Rock River's major tributaries are the Yahara River, the Sugar River, Raccoon Creek and Turtle Creek. The Yahara River and its major tributary, Badfish Creek, drain the northwestern corner of the county along Allen and Marsh Creeks. The Sugar River, Raccoon Creek, and their tributaries drain the southwestern region of the county.
Raccoon Creek confluences with the Sugar River in Illinois which in turn empties into the Rock River. The southeastern portion of the county is drained by Turtle Creek, which confluences with the Rock River in South Beloit.
The floodplains include residential, commercial, industrial, recreational, and agricultural developments. The river floodplains, in general, follow the natural valley limits.
2.3 Principal Flood Problems The streams and rivers in Rock County are subject to flooding throughout the year; however, most flooding has occurred in the spring. These spring floods, the result of a combined snowmelt with moderate amounts of precipitation, can cause
8 flooding which is aggravated due to ice jams throughout the stream reaches. March is the most common month for peak annual discharges based on USGS stream flow records. Even though early spring is the most common time for flooding, the most severe flood on record occurred on Turtle Creek in late April 1973. This flood was due to an intense period of rainfall over the Turtle Creek basin. It had an estimated return period of 150 years.
2.4 Flood Protection Measures There are a number of dams on the rivers and creeks in Rock County; however, none of these dams were designed as flood control structures. The Rock Island COE has published a Phase I General Design Memorandum for a flood damage reduction project on Turtle Creek. That project was terminated due to a lack of economic justification. Rock County originally adopted a state approved floodplain zoning ordinance in November 1974. This Flood Insurance Study is expected to provide data that will be used to update the existing zoning ordinance. A levee system is located on the southwest flood plain of the Sugar River from the State Boundary to about one mile upstream of Nelson Road and on the northeast side from about two miles downstream of Nelson Road to about one mile upstream of Nelson Road. These levees will not provide any protection from the 100-year flood.
3.0 ENGINEERING METHODS For the flooding sources studied by detailed methods in the community, standard hydrologic and hydraulic study methods were used to determine the flood hazard data required for this study. Flood events of a magnitude that are expected to be equaled or exceeded once on the average during any 10-, 50-, 100-, or 500-year period (recurrence interval) have been selected as having special significance for floodplain management and for flood insurance rates. These events, commonly termed the 10-, 50-, 100-, and 500-year floods, have a 10-, 2-, 1-, and 0.2-percent chance, respectively, of being equaled or exceeded during any year. Although the recurrence interval represents the long-term, average period between floods of a specific magnitude, rare floods could occur at short intervals or even within the same year. The risk of experiencing a rare flood increases when periods greater than 1 year are considered. For example, the risk of having a flood that equals or exceeds the 1-percent-annual-chance (100-year) flood in any 50-year period is approximately 40 percent (4 in 10); for any 90-year period, the risk increases to approximately 60 percent (6 in 10). The analyses reported herein reflect flooding potentials based on conditions existing in the community at the time of completion of this study. Maps and flood elevations will be amended periodically to reflect future changes.
3.1 Hydrologic Analyses
9 Hydrologic analyses were carried out to establish peak discharge-frequency relationships for each flooding source studied by detailed methods affecting the community.
Precountywide Analyses Discharge values for the Yahara River at the Rock-Dane county line were taken from the discharge-frequency curve for the Stebbinsville Dam supplied by the USGS. Discharges downstream of the dam to the Badfish Creek confluence were based on a drainage area-discharge relationship for the Stebbinsville Dam. An analysis of Badfish Creek was made to determine its impact on Yahara River flood flows. The discharge-frequency curve for Badfish Creek was based on a statistical analysis of 11 years of record for the nonrecording USGS gage (No. 5-4301) located four miles southwest of Stoughton using a log-Pearson Type III distribution, and on Conger's method. Final values indicated that Badfish Creek controls the flood discharges on the Yahara River downstream of its confluence.
Discharges used in this study are a combination of peak discharges on Badfish Creek plus a portion of the Yahara River flow.
The Rock River was previously studied in Rock County by various governmental agencies. The discharges used in these reports were not adopted due to updated methods of determining discharges. Frequency-discharge relationships for the USGS gage at Afton (No. 543001) with a record from 1914 to present, located on the right bank in Afton and 1.1 miles upstream of Bass Creek, were computed by the log-Pearson Type III distribution. Discharges used were the result of coordination between the States of Wisconsin and Illinois and FEMA. Frequency-discharge curves for other locations on the Rock River were determined by a drainage area comparison to the Afton gage.
Discharge values for Otter, Marsh, and Bass Creek downstream of S. Footville Road were determined by procedures set forth in Project Formulation Hydrology, Technical Release No. 20 (TR-20). Supporting computations were made using Conger's method and a peak discharge-drainage area comparison to Turtle Creek.
Discharges for Allen Creek were computed using the TR-20 method as reported in a Flood Hazard Study for the City of Evansville, Wisconsin.
Flood discharges for Turtle Creek are based on a statistical analysis of the USGS recording station (No. 5-4315) with a period of record from 1939 to the present, located on the left bank of Turtle Creek immediately downstream of the State Highway 140 bridge, 2.7 miles north of Clinton. This analysis, using the log-Pearson Type III distribution, was the result of coordination between the States of Wisconsin and Illinois and was accepted by FEMA. The resulting discharge does not agree with previously accepted values due to the different methodology used and the inclusion of the April 1973 flood. Discharge-frequency curves at other locations were based on a drainage area comparison to the Clinton gage.
10 Unnamed Tributary No. 1 to Turtle Creek and Unnamed Tributary No. 2 to Turtle Creek were studied by Conger's method, TR-20, and discharge-drainage area comparisons. The final discharge-frequency curves are a composite of these three methods.
Discharges for the Sugar River are based on a statistical analysis of the USGS recording station (No. 5-4365) with a period of record from 1914 to the present, located on the left bank of the Sugar River, 1.2 miles southwest of Brodhead. The adopted discharge-frequency relationship was the result of coordination between Wisconsin and Illinois and was accepted by FEMA. Discharges for the study were based on a drainage area-discharge comparison to the Brodhead gage.
Discharges for Raccoon Creek and its two unnamed tributaries were determined by a TR-20 model. Supporting calculations were made by Conger's method and a discharge-drainage area comparison.
Discharges for the East Fork Raccoon Creek and its unnamed tributary were based on a TR-20 model. Supporting computations included a drainage area comparison to a USGS gage (No. 5-4372) with a period of record from 1958 to the present located on the unnamed tributary and Conger's method.
Flood discharges for Spring Brook Beloit and Spring Brook Janesville were based on the results of Conger's method, a drainage comparison, and the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Soil Conservation Service (SCS) method.
The hydrologic analyses for Allen Creek to establish the peak discharge relationships for floods of the 10-, 50-, 100-, and 500-year recurrence intervals were made utilizing the SCS hydrology computer program TR-20. The principal factors considered in this method are soil types, land use, slope of terrain, channel length and rainfall distribution. Four rainfalls were used in the model. Rainfall data for the 10-, 500, 100-, and 500-year return frequency storms were obtained from the U.S. Weather Bureau Technical Paper No. 40. The resulting flows computed in the TR-20 model were compared to U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) gauged watersheds of similar characteristics and were determined to match reasonably well.
Revised Analyses for this Countywide FIS The hydrologic analyses for Bass Creek upstream of S. Footville Road, Blackhawk Creek upstream of State Highway 14, Fisher Creek, Greenbelt Tributaries 1-5, Markham Creek, Morningside Tributary, Saunders Creek, Spring Brook (Beloit),
Unnamed Tributary 1 to Rock River, Unnamed Tributary to Blackhawk Creek and Unnamed Tributary in Turtle Township and all limited detail studies (outlined in section 2.1) were done using the Wisconsin DNR Hydrology Tool extension in ArcView 3.2 and HEC-HMS 2.2.2.
11 The Loss rate method/abstraction used was SCS CN. CN data was based on WiscLand grid. The SCS Unit hydrograph/TR-55 flow path segment method was used. Channel properties were estimated from the 2000 digital terrain model (DTM). Mannings N values were derived from the 2000 orthophoto. Muskingum Cunge was used for routing and channels were based off of the 2000 DTM.
Rainfall distribution curve was developed by SEWRPC for all southeast Wisconsin Counties. Rock County was on the fringe of this region, but it was determined that the curve still applied as the curve included gauge data from Rock County.
24-, 12-, 6-and 3-hour storm durations were run in HEC-HMS to determine the storm with the highest peak flow. The 24-, 12-, 6-and 3-hour rainfall for 10-, 50-and 100-year storms were obtained from the U.S. Weather Bureau Technical Paper No. 40. The 500-year rainfall total was extrapolated based on the previous totals.
There was a storm on August 5, 1998 that approximately measured as a 1 percent annual chance rainfall event. This event was entered into the HEC-HMS models to compare the flow to the 1 percent annual chance peak flow. The values compared favorably.
The stream gauge on a tributary to Fisher Creek (#5430403) was used to verify Fisher Creeks peak value. This was the only stream gauge on any of the studies were new hydrology was performed.
Peak discharge-drainage area relationships for Rock County are shown in Table 1.

3.2 Hydraulic Analyses Analyses of the hydraulic characteristics of flooding from the sources studied were carried out to provide estimates of the elevations of floods of the selected recurrence intervals. Users should be aware that flood elevations shown on the Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) represent rounded whole-foot elevations and may not exactly reflect the elevations shown on the Flood Profiles or in the Floodway Data Table in the FIS report. Flood elevations shown on the FIRM are primarily intended for flood insurance rating purposes. For construction and/or floodplain management purposes, users are cautioned to use the flood elevation data presented in this FIS report in conjunction with the data shown on the FIRM.
Precountywide Analyses UNINCORPORATED AREAS There were 471 field measured cross sections for the Rock County study, of which 183 were supplied by the COE and the USGS.
The distances between cross sections were obtained from enlarged 1:24000 scale USGS quadrangle maps.
Locations of selected cross sections used in the hydraulic analyses are shown on the Flood Profiles. For stream segments for which a floodway was computed (Section 4.2), selected cross section locations are also shown on the Flood Boundary and Floodway Map.
The channel and overbank roughness factors (Manning's n) were assigned on the basis of field inspection. These range from 0.028 to 0.05 in the channel and 0.04 to 0.15 in the overbanks.
The hydraulic model for Yahara River reflects existing conditions. The powerhouse and dam on the Yahara River, near Fulton, are presently being modified or have future plans for modification. The 18 wicket gates at the powerhouse are operable; however, they are blocked off from flow and were not considered in developing outflow rating curves from the lake. The powerhouse may be fully functional within a year's time, thus affecting the water-surface upstream of the dam. An area of divided flow exists at the Fulton Dam. A small portion of the 100-year flow separates from the main flow and is diverted east of the Fulton Dam through a divergence channel and then back into the Yahara River.
Flows through the divergence channel were taken into account in the hydraulic model. A levee located along the northern side of the channel prevents the diverging flow from overflowing into the flood plain. Hydraulic data upstream of the Stebbinsville Dam were obtained from the Dane County Flood Insurance Study. The river miles for the Yahara River do not agree with previous studies due to updated mapping.
16
Water-surface elevations were computed using the COE HEC-2 step-backwater computer program. Profiles were determined for the 10-, 50-, 100-, and 500-year floods. Water-surface elevations for the other detailed study streams were started at bank full elevations at the main stem.
Starting water-surface elevations on Blackhawk Creek are the corresponding elevations of Spring Brook at the confluence point.
The starting water-surface elevations for Sugar River match the elevations at the upstream limit of the Winnebago County, Illinois, Flood Insurance Study.
Turtle Creek was studied in combination and coordinated with the Beloit and South Beloit Flood Insurance Studies. Starting water surface elevations were taken from the Beloit Flood Insurance Study. Hydraulic data were also coordinated with the Rock Island COE. Due to the level of detail and lack of data, a possible overflow bypass across Creek Road to the Rock River was not studied by detailed methods.
All flow was assumed to continue downstream on Turtle Creek. Flood profiles were drawn showing computed water-surface elevations for floods of the selected recurrence intervals.
Hydraulic characteristics of stream reaches studied by approximate methods were determined from flood prone area maps and by normal depth analysis.
The hydraulic analyses for Allen Creek were taken from the Flood Hazard Study for the City of Evansville. The flood profiles taken from the report were computed using the SCS WSP-2 computer program.
CITY OF JANESVILLE Cross section data and structure data necessary for this analysis were developed by field survey and bridge data from the COE, Rock Island District, files, City of Janesville data, and use of topographic maps at a scale of 1:2400 with a contour interval of 2 feet for overbank areas.
The procedures used for calculating head losses through bridges and other structures causing constrictions to flow allowed the identification of significant backwater producing structures.
Locations of selected cross sections used in the hydraulic analyses are shown on the Flood Profiles. For stream segments for which a floodway was computed (Section 4.2), selected cross section locations are also shown on the Flood Boundary and Floodway Map.
Overbank roughness factors (Manning's n) for the streams were estimated using engineering judgment and high water data from photographs taken at cross section locations and field observations. Channel roughness factors were estimated by 17
comparison with table values and the step-by-step procedure for channel n values in Chow's text on open-channel hydraulics and historical high water data. These ranged from 0.028 to 0.033 for channel and 0.04 to 0.09 for overbanks on the Rock River. For Spring Brook and Blackhawk Creek, which are hydraulically continuous, these values varied from 0.035 to 0.070 in the channel and 0.050 to 0.14 for overbanks.
Starting water-surface elevations on Spring Brook were determined using the corresponding 10-year frequency water surface on the Rock River. Starting water-surface elevations on Blackhawk Creek are the elevation of Spring Creek at the confluence point. Water surface elevations were computed using the COE HEC-2 step-backwater computer program CITY OF BELOIT Stream cross sections and structural data for all streams studied in detail were obtained from field survey and the Rock Island District COE.
Roughness coefficients (Manning's n), used in the hydraulic analyses, were based on field observations and engineering judgment, and were provided by the Rock Island District COE. The n values for the Rock River channel range from 0.03 to 0.045 and the overbanks range from 0.055 to 0.085. The n value for the Turtle Creek channel is 0.035 and the overbanks range from 0.05 to 0.075. The n' values for the Spring Brook channel range from 0.03 to 0.07 and the overbanks range from 0.06 to 0.16.
Hydraulic information for Spring Brook was obtained from the Rock County, Wisconsin Flood Insurance Study.
Starting water-surface elevations for the Rock River and Turtle Creek were based on downstream flood profiles obtained from the South Beloit Flood Insurance Study. Starting water surface elevations for Spring Brook were obtained using the slope-area method. Water surface profiles for the various discharge-frequencies were determined using the COE HEC-2 computer program. Flood profiles were drawn showing computed water-surface elevations for floods of the selected recurrence intervals.
CITY OF EDGERTON The cross sections used for the study were obtained from 2-foot contour maps made available by the City.
All bridge elevation data and structural geometry for the backwater analyses of the flooding source studied were obtained by field surveys by the Study Contractor.
The channel soundings were also obtained by field measurement.
Channel roughness factors (Manning's n) used in the hydraulic computations were chosen by engineering judgment and based on field observations of the 18
streams and floodplain areas. Roughness values for the main channel of Saunders Creek range from 0.035 to 0.04 with floodplain roughness values ranging from 0.06 to 0.11 for all floods.
CITY OF EVANSVILLE Cross section data for Allen Creek were obtained from field survey measurements.
All bridges and culverts were field surveyed to obtain elevation data and structural geometry.
Comparing the 100-year flood elevation with the contour maps, it was discovered that flow would occur over the Chicago and North Western railroad tracks toward the east in an area downstream of Main Street. The water that flows over the tracks does not re-enter Allen Creek until it joins the flow from a drainage basin from the east and enters Allen Creek south of the city. The divided flow was subtracted from the main flow in the channel.
Revised Analyses for this Countywide FIS All new hydraulic models were done by Gannett Fleming using HEC-RAS 3.1.3.
County-wide floodplain delineations were also created by Gannett Fleming using year 2000 Rock County digital terrain data and ArcGIS 9.1.
The distances between all cross sections were obtained by calculating the distance along the stream centerline digitized from the 2000 Rock County orthophoto.
Locations of selected cross sections used in the hydraulic analyses are shown on the Flood Profiles. For stream segments for which a floodway was computed (Section 4.2), selected cross section locations are also shown on the Flood Insurance Rate Map.
The channel and overbank roughness factors (Manning's n) for new studies were assigned on the basis of inspection of the 2000 Rock County orthophoto.
All studies that were redelineated used the previous models n values.
For all new detailed studies (Fisher Creek, Markham Creek, Morningside Trib, Greenbelt Tribs 1-5, Unnamed Trib to Blackhawk Creek, Unnamed Trib 1 to Rock River, Unnamed Trib in Turtle Township and portions of Saunders Creek, Spring Brook-Beloit, Bass Creek and Blackhawk Creek) all bridges and culverts were field surveyed to obtain elevation data and structural geometry. For the following redelineated studies, all bridges in the existing model were verified as the current existing bridges and the 2000 orthophoto was inspected to search for new bridges since the model was created: Rock River, Raccoon Creek, East Fork Raccoon Creek, Unnamed Tribs 1 & 2 to Raccoon Creek, Unnamed Trib to East Fork Raccoon Creek and the remaining portions of Saunders Creek, Spring Brook-Beloit 19
and Allen Creek. If the DOT had plans for a new bridge, it was entered into the HEC-RAS 3.1.3 model and re-run to get new water surface elevations.
There were no new hydraulic models created for; Yahara River, Otter Creek, Marsh Creek, Turtle Creek, Unnamed Tribs 1 & 2 to Turtle Creek, Sugar River, Spring Brook-Janesville, the downstream-most 1.25 miles of Blackhawk Creek, upstream of the Lake Leota Dam on Allen Creek and below S. Footville Rd. on Bass Creek. The old FIS profile was taken as is and those elevations were mapped on new terrain data. This was done largely for the fact that the original model could not be located on most of these. On the few that an original model could be found, complications including matching the cross sections to new terrain and time constraints were used as the reason why the model was not updated. The only exception to this is that Fulton Dam was taken out of the profile of Yahara River since it has been removed since the last FIS.
The limited detail studies on Lenigan Creek, Lenigan Creek Tribs. 1 & 2, Philhower Road Trib., Unnamed Clinton Trib., South Branch Unnamed Clinton Trib., Unnamed Trib. in Union Township, Milton Ditch and Unnamed Trib. 2 to Rock River were done in the same manner in HEC-RAS 3.1.3 as the new detailed studies. The difference between these two types of studies was that the limited detail studies bridges were not surveyed into mean sea level (MSL). The bridges were measured in relative distances from the top of road.
The 10-year frequency water surface of the Rock River was used as the starting water surface for the following studies: Unnamed Trib. 1 to Rock River, Markham Creek, Fisher Creek and Saunders Creek.
The 100-year frequency water surface elevation at the upstream end of the redelineate reach of Blackhawk Creek was used as the starting water surface elevation for the new detailed reach of Blackhawk Creek.
The 100-year frequency water surface elevation at the upstream end of the redelineate reach of Bass Creek was used as the starting water surface elevation for the new detailed reach of Bass Creek.
The 10-year frequency water surface of Blackhawk Creek was used as the starting water surface for Greenbelt Trib. 1 and Morningside Trib. Greenbelt Tribs. 1-5 were all entered in the same HEC-RAS model and Tribs. 2-5 starting water surface elevations are equal to the 100-year frequency water surface of its receiving stream.
The Unnamed Trib. to Blackhawk Creek was included in the same HEC-RAS model as Blackhawk Creek, so its starting water surface elevation is equal to the 100-year frequency water surface of Blackhawk Creek at the confluence.
20
Spring Brook (Beloit) has a starting water surface elevation equal to the 10-year frequency water surface of Turtle Creek.
Starting water surface elevation for Unnamed Trib. in Turtle Township was done by normal depth calculation.
Locations of selected cross sections used in the hydraulic analyses are shown on the Flood Profiles (Exhibit 1). For stream segments for which a floodway was computed (Section 4.2), selected cross section locations are also shown on the FIRM (Exhibit 2).
The hydraulic analyses for this study were based on unobstructed flow. The flood elevations shown on the Flood Profiles (Exhibit 1) are thus considered valid only if hydraulic structures remain unobstructed, operate properly, and do not fail.
3.3 Vertical Datum All FIS reports and FIRMs are referenced to a specific vertical datum. The vertical datum provides a starting point against which flood, ground, and structure elevations can be referenced and compared. Until recently, the standard vertical datum in use for newly created or revised FIS reports and FIRMs was the National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929 (NGVD29). With the finalization of the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88), many FIS reports and FIRMs are being prepared using NAVD88 as the referenced vertical datum.
All flood elevations shown in this FIS report and on the FIRM are referenced to NGVD29. Structure and ground elevations in the community must, therefore, be referenced to NGVD29. It is important to note that adjacent communities may be referenced to NAVD88. This may result in differences in Base Flood Elevations (BFEs) across the corporate limits between the communities.
For more information on NAVD88, see the FEMA publication entitled Converting the National Flood Insurance Program to the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (FEMA, June 1992), or contact the Vertical Network Branch, National Geodetic Survey, Coast and Geodetic Survey, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Silver Spring, Maryland 20910 (Internet address http://www.ngs.noaa.gov).
Temporary vertical monuments are often established during the preparation of a flood hazard analysis for the purpose of establishing local vertical control.
Although these monuments are not shown on the FIRM, they may be found in the Technical Support Data Notebook associated with the FIS report and FIRM 21
for this community. Interested individuals may contact FEMA to access these data.
4.0 FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT APPLICATIONS The NFIP encourages State and local governments to adopt sound floodplain management programs. Therefore, each FIS provides 1-percent-annual-chance (100-year) flood elevations and delineations of the 1-and 0.2-percent-annual-chance (500-year) floodplain boundaries and 1-percent-annual-chance floodway to assist communities in developing floodplain management measures. This information is presented on the FIRM and in many components of the FIS report, including Flood Profiles, Floodway Data Table, and Summary of Stillwater Elevations Table. Users should reference the data presented in the FIS report as well as additional information that may be available at the local map repository before making flood elevation and/or floodplain boundary determinations.
4.1 Floodplain Boundaries To provide a national standard without regional discrimination, the 1-percent-annual-chance flood has been adopted by FEMA as the base flood for floodplain management purposes. The 0.2-percent-annual-chance flood is employed to indicate additional areas of flood risk in the community. For each stream studied by detailed methods, the 1-and 0.2-percent-annual-chance floodplain boundaries have been delineated using the flood elevations determined at each cross section.
Between cross sections, the boundaries were delineated based on the 2000 Rock County digital terrain model.
The 1-and 0.2-percent-annual-chance floodplain boundaries are shown on the FIRM (Exhibit 2). On this map, the 1-percent-annual-chance floodplain boundary corresponds to the boundary of the areas of special flood hazards (Zones A and AE), and the 0.2-percent-annual-chance floodplain boundary corresponds to the boundary of areas of moderate flood hazards. Small areas within the floodplain boundaries may lie above the flood elevations but cannot be shown due to limitations of the map scale and/or lack of detailed topographic data.
For the streams studied by approximate methods, only the 1-percent-annual-chance floodplain boundary is shown on the FIRM (Exhibit 2).
22
23 4.2 Floodways Encroachment on floodplains, such as structures and fill, reduces flood-carrying capacity, increases flood heights and velocities, and increases flood hazards in areas beyond the encroachment itself. One aspect of floodplain management involves balancing the economic gain from floodplain development against the resulting increase in flood hazard. For purposes of the NFIP, a floodway is used as a tool to assist local communities in this aspect of floodplain management.
Under this concept, the area of the 1-percent-annual-chance floodplain is divided into a floodway and a floodway fringe. The floodway is the channel of a stream, plus any adjacent floodplain areas, that must be kept free of encroachment so that the 1-percent-annual-chance flood can be carried without substantial increases in flood heights. Minimum Federal standards limit such increases to 1 foot, provided that hazardous velocities are not produced. The floodways in this study are presented to local agencies as minimum standards that can be adopted directly or that can be used as a basis for additional floodway studies.
The floodways presented in this FIS report and on the FIRM were computed for certain stream segments on the basis of equal-conveyance reduction from each side of the floodplain. Floodway widths were computed at cross sections.
Between cross sections, the floodway boundaries were interpolated. The results of the floodway computations have been tabulated for selected cross sections (Table3).

The area between the floodway and 1-percent-annual-chance floodplain boundaries is termed the floodway fringe. The floodway fringe encompasses the portion of the floodplain that could be completely obstructed without increasing the water surface elevation of the 1-percent-annual-chance flood more than 1 foot at any point. Typical relationships between the floodway and the floodway fringe and their significance to floodplain development are shown in Figure 1.
Figure 1 - Floodway Schematic 5.0 INSURANCE APPLICATIONS For flood insurance rating purposes, flood insurance zone designations are assigned to a community based on the results of the engineering analyses. These zones are as follows:
Zone A Zone A is the flood insurance risk zone that corresponds to the 1-percent-annual-chance floodplains that are determined in the FIS by approximate methods. Because detailed hydraulic analyses are not performed for such areas, no BFEs or base flood depths are shown within this zone.
Zone AE Zone AE is the flood insurance risk zone that corresponds to the 1-percent-annual-chance floodplains that are determined in the FIS by detailed methods. In most instances, whole-foot BFEs derived from the detailed hydraulic analyses are shown at selected intervals within this zone.
80
Zone X Zone X is the flood insurance risk zone that corresponds to areas outside the 0.2-percent-annual-chance floodplain, areas within the 0.2-percent-annual-chance floodplain, areas of 1-percent-annual-chance flooding where average depths are less than 1 foot, areas of 1-percent-annual-chance flooding where the contributing drainage area is less than 1 square mile, and areas protected from the 1-percent-annual-chance flood by levees. No BFEs or base flood depths are shown within this zone.
6.0 FLOOD INSURANCE RATE MAP The FIRM is designed for flood insurance and floodplain management applications.
For flood insurance applications, the map designates flood insurance risk zones as described in Section 5.0 and, in the 1-percent-annual-chance floodplains that were studied by detailed methods, shows selected whole-foot BFEs or average depths.
Insurance agents use the zones and BFEs in conjunction with information on structures and their contents to assign premium rates for flood insurance policies.
For floodplain management applications, the map shows by tints, screens, and symbols, the 1-and 0.2-percent-annual-chance floodplains, floodways, and the locations of selected cross sections used in the hydraulic analyses and floodway computations.
The countywide FIRM presents flooding information for the entire geographic area of Rock County. Previously, FIRMs were prepared for each incorporated community and the unincorporated areas of the County identified as flood-prone.

3 Introduction This report was prepared by the Engineering Division following the June 2008 flood, which exceeded a 100-year flood of the Rock River. The City of Janesville, along with the U.S. Geological Society (USGS), monitored the stretch of the river from Indianford to Afton. Actions taken, such as closures of roads and parks, sandbagging, and power shutoffs, were documented to help decrease future flood damage. Furthermore, issues with wastewater and septic systems, electrical equipment, and general health and safety are addressed. The information compiled in this report provides comprehensive documentation of the events that occurred. This information will assist with emergency preparedness for the next major flood in the future. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers prepared a study of the Rock River through Janesville in 1968. This 2008 report does not attempt to recreate that information; rather, it supplements the Corps study.
City of Janesville, WI - Flood Report
4 USGS River Elevations During the June 2008 flood, two U.S. Geological Society water-stage recording gauges at Indianford and Afton were used in monitoring the river. The use of these two stations allowed for easy comparison to historical flooding events. A detailed history of the Rock Rivers flooding situation is available in the Flood Plain Information report prepared by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers - Rock Island District in June, 1968.
Indianford Station (Upstream Gauge)
The U.S. Geological Society has maintained a water-stage recording gauge at Indianford since May 1975. Located 250 feet upstream from the Indianford Dam and 1.8 miles upstream from the Yahara River, this gauge has a datum of 763.84 above sea level. With the bank full stage at 14, the historical maximum gauge height of 18.32 was recorded during the June 2008 flood - 4.32 above this stage. Data for the Indianford gauge can be obtained at http://waterdata.usgs.gov/nwis/uv?05427570.
Afton Station (Downstream Gauge)
The U.S. Geological Society has maintained a stream gauging station on the Rock River at Afton, WI since January 1914. A water-stage recording gauge was then installed in August 1932 -
located on the west bank of the Rock River approximately 0.8 miles upstream from the intersection with Bass Creek. The Afton gauge is a forecasting station for the National Weather Service. The prediction information provided by the National Weather Service was very helpful in determining the actual impact to the City of Janesville. This information can be accessed at http://www.crh.noaa.gov/ahps2/index.php?wfo=mkx. The datum of this gauge, read at the river bed, is 742.36 above sea level. The bankfull stage at this gauging station is 8.0 ft and the historical maximum gauge height is 13.51 ft, which was observed during the June 2008 flood. This corresponds to 5.51 above bankfull stage - an elevation of 755.87 above sea level. Data for the Afton gauge can be obtained at http://waterdata.usgs.gov/nwis/uv?05430500.
The proximity of the Indianford and Afton gauging stations in relation to the City of Janesville are shown below, in Figure 1.

6 City of Janesville River Monitoring Operations A 25-mile level loop was established with 5 monitoring stations along the Rock River. The monitoring stations were located at the South River Road Bridge, Monterey Dam, Hedberg Public Library, North Traxler Boat Launch, and North River Road. The loop started at S. River Road Bridge and ran in the order listed above (Fig. 2). At each station a level rod, correlated to a USGS elevation, was placed in the water and continuously monitored on an hourly basis until the river showed steady decline in elevation - at which time the monitoring was scaled back to five readings per weekday and three readings per day on the weekend, which was continued until the river returned to its initial elevation reading. As the river rose, the rods at Monterey Dam and N. River Rd. were moved closer to shore because the original rods had become difficult to read (Fig. 5, 12).
Data from these readings is available in full in Appendix B.
Future Recommendations It is recommended that the level at the Monterey Dam be moved to the west side of the dams pedestrian bridge (Fig. 6), as turbulent water on the east side of the dam fluctuates by as much as a tenth of a foot, creating difficulty in obtaining consistent, accurate readings. In addition to calmer water, the rod at this location can be easily accessed throughout the flood because the concrete walkway shown in Figure 5 will not be covered by water.
A change in monitoring location is also recommended at the Library. In the event that the water becomes too turbulent or if water flows over the river wall, readings should then be taken from the inlet in the parking structure under the library (Fig. 8), where the water is at the same elevation as at the river wall. For reference, the elevation at the top of this inlet is 766.35 ft.
Figure 2 identifies the 25-mile loop driven during the river monitoring. Figures 3 - 12 are actual pictures of the five monitoring stations.

13 During the June 2008 flood, river level data was collected from the USGS gauges at both Indianford and Afton, as well as from the five monitoring stations set up by Engineering Division staff along the Rock River. This data, found in full in Appendix B, is illustrated below in Figure 13.
The initial elevation for all stations arbitrarily references zero to account for variance in land topography, creating clear, easy-to-see trends in elevation changes. At any point in time shown on the graph, the true elevation can be calculated by adding the rise from the chart to the initial elevation value found in the key.
Figure 13: Rock River Elevations at Each Station for the 2008 Flood City of Janesville, WI - Flood Report
14 As illustrated in Figure 13, the river does not rise uniformly - rather, it correlates to the width of the river at each station. The width is greatest at the Monterey station; and therefore, the river experienced the least amount of rise at the widest location monitored. When predicting the rivers crest in the future, the rate of rise at the different stations is critical. The maximum elevations and total amount of rise collected during the 2008 flood at each station are listed below, in Table 1.
