Floods have been responsible for the damage or destruction of numerous forest road, channel, and water diversion structures. Some of the losses are to be expected because it is too costly to design for all circumstances. Other losses occur because of little or no flood design, debris accumulations, slope instability, and poor awareness and understanding of the problem. Presented are some applications of flood frequency and risk information in forest land management. Some of the problems of application are discussed. A simple approach to refine water resource records to meet local needs is included as a tool to check other flood analyses or provide design assistance.
