A Floodplain Management Plan was prepared for the Butte Creek Watershed Conservancy by Wood Rodgers, Inc. in May of 2005.  The preparation of the Butte Creek Watershed Flood Management Plan (FMP) was facilitated by the effort and foresight of the Butte Creek Watershed Conservancy in conjunction with Butte County.

The overall purpose of the Butte Creek Watershed FMP is to provide guidance to those agencies and/or members of the public who are:

• interested in protecting life, property, and livestock

• involved in land use planning

• responsible for administering the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP),

• responsible for flood emergencies within the Butte Creek Watershed
