How many structures are at risk with and without the CU-South Campus berm?
Current study results based on existing conditions with the berm in place indicate that 741 structures will be impacted by 100-year flooding and 1,621 structures will be impacted by 500-year flooding. The number of structures impacted by flooding without the berm has not yet been determined. However, since flooding will be greater in the West Valley without the berm and remains very similar along the main creek corridor, the number of structures impacted by flooding is expected to increase.
