TECHNIQUE FOR ESTIMATING FLOOD-PEAK DISCHARGES AND

FREQUENCIES ON RURAL STREAMS IN ILLINOIS

By G. W. Curtis

ABSTRACT

Flood-peak discharges and frequencies are presented for 394 gaged sites in Illinois/ Indiana, and Wisconsin for recurrence intervals ranging from 2 to 100 years. A technique is presented for estimating flood-peak discharges at recurrence intervals ranging from 2 to 500 years for nonregulated streams in Illinois with drainage areas ranging from 0.02 to 10/000 squares miles. Multiple-regression analyses/ using basin characteristics and peak streamflow data from 268 of the 394 gaged sites/ were used to define the flood-frequency relation. The most significant independent variables for estimating flood- peak discharges are drainage area/ slope/ rainfall intensity/ and a regional factor. Examples are given to show a step-by-step procedure in calculating a 50-year flood for a site on an ungaged stream/ a site at a gaged location/ and a site near a gaged location.

INTRODUCTION

The purpose of this report is to provide updated station flood-peak dis­ charges and frequencies and to provide improvement to the previous techniques for estimating flood-peak discharges and frequencies of floods for sites on most streams where flood discharges are not significantly affected by regula­ tion or urbanization. Flood-peak discharges and frequencies are presented for 394 gaging stations in Illinois/ Indiana/ and Wisconsin for recurrence inter­ vals of 2/ 5/ 10/ 25/ 50/ and 100 years. A technique using drainage area (A)/ slope (S)/ rainfall intensity (I)/ and regional factor (Rf) was developed for estimating flood-peak discharges at ungaged sites in Illinois. Equations using these variables are applicable for estimating flood-peak discharges for recurrence intervals of 2 to 500 years for drainage areas ranging from 0.02 to 10/000 square miles (mi 2 ) on nonregulated rural streams. Estimates of future floods are necessary for the proper design of engineering projects such as bridges/ culverts/ highways/ and flood-control structures; for establishment of actuarial flood-insurance rates; and for proper flood-plain management by State and local agencies.

Previous techniques for estimating flood-peak discharges and frequencies in Illinois have been provided by Mitchell (1954)/ Speer and Gamble (1965)/ Wiitala (1965)/ Patterson and Gamble (1968)/ Ellis (1968)/ Cams (1973)/ Curtis (1977a)/ and Alien and Bejcek (1979). Techniques were developed by Cams (1973)/ Curtis (1977a)/ and Alien and Bejcek (1979) using ordinary least

squares multiple-regression analyses as recommended by Thomas and Benson (1970). Additional data and improved analytical methods used in this report increase the confidence in estimating techniques over those published in earlier reports.

This report was prepared under a cooperative agreement between the State of Illinois, Department of Transportation, Division of Water Resources, and the U.S. Geological Survey (Survey). Streamflow data were collected in coop­ eration with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and State and local agencies.

TECHNIQUE FOR ESTIMATING FLOOD-PEAK DISCHARGES

Annual peak discharges from gaging stations having a minimum of 10 years of record through the 1985 water year were used to define station flood- frequency relations. Locations of these stations are shown in figures 1 and 2. The map number, identification number, name, geographic location, and station flood-peak discharges for the stations are listed in table 1. All figures and tables are grouped in the back of the report for easy reference.

Station flood-frequency relations were defined using the Hydrology Subcommittee of Interagency Advisory Committee on Water Data (1982), formerly U.S. Water Resources Council, guidelines. These guidelines outline procedures to fit the logarithms of observed annual peak discharges to the Pearson Type III frequency distribution.

Peak discharges of various recurrence intervals and basin characteristics for gaging stations were used in multiple-regression analyses to develop esti­ mating equations for flood-peak discharges and frequencies on nonregulated rural streams in Illinois. Data from stations affected by either urbanization or by regulation were not included in the regression analyses. Relations were developed for estimating flood-peak discharges corresponding to the 2-, 5-, 10-, 25-, 50-, 100-, and 500-year recurrence-interval flood (T-year flood or Qrp). The regression analyses indicated that the independent variables drainage area (A), slope (S), rainfall intensity (I), and regional factor (Rf) are the most significant variables to use in estimating flood-peak discharges for Illinois streams. One estimating equation for each recurrence interval provides a straightforward technique to compute flood-peak discharges for both small and large Illinois streams. Flood-peak discharges and frequencies, basin charac­ teristics and other pertinent data, and regional factors are tabulated in tables 1, 2, and 3. In table 1, two sets of station flood-peak discharges are presented for two stations (Nos. 385 and 389) on the Big Muddy River. The first set of discharges are for periods of nonregulated flow and were used in the regression analyses. The second set of discharges are for periods ofregulated flow and were not used in the regress: .on analyses.

The reliability of flood-frequency estimates is uncertain for very large recurrence intervals. Because of this uncertainty, the 500-year flood dis­ charges are omitted from table 1. An estimating equation for the 500-year flood is provided primarily for planners who are required to compute this event for special purposes such as flood-insurance studies. Only those stations used in the regression analyses are listed in table 2.

The flood-frequency and the regression analyses, used to develop the estimating technique, are defined in detail in the data-analyses section.

Flood-peak discharge equations, applicable statewide, for estimating Qrp on nonregulated rural streams are as follows:

Q2 - 40.3 A0 ' 790 S°' 481 (1-2.5)°' 677 Rf (1)

Q5 - 66.4 A0 ' 786 S°' 513 (1-2.5)°' 719 Rf (2)

Q 10 - 83.0 A0 ' 785 S°' 532 (1-2.5)°' 742 Rf (3)

Q25 = 103 A0 * 786 s°* 552 (1-2.5)°' 768 Rf (4)

Q50 = 118 A0 * 786 s°* 566 (1-2.5)°' 786 Rf (5)

Q 100 - 132 A0 ' 787 S°' 578 d-2.5)°' 803 ^ (6)

Q500 = 162 A0 ' 789 S°' 601 (1-2.5)°' 838 Rf (7)

The four variables required to solve the equations are drainage area (A), slope (S), rainfall intensity (I), and regional factor (Rf). Drainage area and slope are determined from topographic maps. Drainage area is the area contrib­ uting to surface runoff. Slope is determined between points 10 percent and 85 percent of the total distance measured along the low-water channel from the site to the basin divide. The rainfall intensity is determined from figure 3. The regional factor is determined by first selecting the region number from figure 4 and then the appropriate regional factor from table 3.

Flood-peak discharge equations for recurrence intervals between 2 and 100 years, other than those in equations 1 to 7, may be developed by interpolating the regression constant and coefficients from the graphs in figure 5.

APPLICATION OF ESTIMATING TECHNIQUE

The technique for estimating flood-peak discharges and frequencies is applicable to either ungaged or gaged nonregulated rural streams. Figure 6 shows the sequence to follow for estimating a flood-peak discharge at a site. Step-by-step procedures for applying the estimating technique are given in the examples that follow.

Site on Ungaged Stream

Flood frequency estimates at sites on ungaged streams are calculated using equations 1 to 7.

Example 1: Computation of the 50-year recurrence interval flood at a site on an ungaged stream:

Page 9: Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4207 · 2011. 1. 12. · Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4207 Prepared in cooperation with ILLINOIS DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORATION,

1. Determine the size of contributing drainage area (A), in square miles. The area can be planimetered on topographic, county, or other maps suitable for delineating the basin boundary. For this example, assume A = 625 mi^.

2. Determine the slope (S), in feet per mile (ft/mi). Slope isbased on the difference of elevations divided by distance between points 10 percent and 85 percent of the total distance measured along the low-water channel of the stream from the site to the basin divide. For this example, assume S = 2.5 ft/mi.

3. Determine the rainfall intensity (I), in inches, from figure 3. The value of I should be an average for the basin. For this example, assume I = 3.1 inches.

4. Determine the region (R) and the regional factor (Rf) from figure 4 and table 3, respectively. For this example, R is III and Rf is 0.862.

5. Select equation 5 from page 3 and compute the flood magnitude.

Q50 = 118 A0 - 786 s°' 566 (1-2.5)°' 786 Rf

= (118)(625)°- 786 (2.5)°- 566 (3.1-2.5)°- 786 (0.862)

= (118)(157.6)(1.68)(0.669)(0.862)

= 18,000 ft 3 /s.

Site at Gaged Location

Flood frequency estimates at gaged sites are combinations of the gaging station frequency curve and the equation estimates. The equivalent years of record concept (Hardison, 1971) was used to obtain weighted estimates of peak flow at gaged sites using estimates obtained from station records and from equations 1 to 7. This procedure was described by the Hydrologic Subcommittee (1982) and is expressed in the equation

Om Yrs of record (log sta. QT ) + Eg yrs record (log regional QT ) t

Yrs of record + Eq yrs record

In equation 8, station QT is obtained from the first line of discharge valuesin table 1 and converted to a logarithm (log).mined from table 2. The regional Qip is computed using the desired regionalestimating equation on page 3 or obtained from

The years of record are deter-

the second line of dischargevalues in table 1 and then transformed into logs. The station equivalent years of record (Eq yrs record) for the equation are also given in table 2. The antilog of the result from equation 8 is the weighted estimate of the sta­ tion flood discharge.

Page 10: Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4207 · 2011. 1. 12. · Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4207 Prepared in cooperation with ILLINOIS DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORATION,

Example 2: Computation of the weighted 50-year recurrence interval flood at the gaging station 05572000 Sangaraon River at Monticello, Illinois (map No. 307) :

Yrs of record (log sta. Qcn) + Eq yrs record (log equation

= 344.73788 81.5

= 4.22991

ft 3 /s.

For convenience, the weighted estimates for a station have been tabulated in the third line of values in table 1 . Equation 8 may be used to update the values of line 3 in table 1 as additional years of record are obtained.

Site near Gaged Location

Flood frequency estimates at a site near a gaging station on the same stream can be calculated by a combined use of the estimating equations 1 to 7 and the nearby station data. The following procedure is suggested for use if the site has a drainage area within 50 percent of the drainage area of the gaging station. Define the ratio, r:

r = (9)QT (gage, eq. 1-7)

This ratio represents the correction needed to adjust the estimating equation value to the gage weighted value. The following equation, derived by Sauer (1974), gives the adjustment factor, r 1 , for a site that is near a gaged site on the same stream:

r' = r - -r r- (r-1.00). (10) 0.

In equation 10, AA is the difference between the drainage areas of the site and the gaged site, and AQ is the drainage area at the gaged site. The adjusted Qip for a site is computed using the equation:

QT (adjusted) = Qj, (eq. 1-7) r 1 . (11)

If the drainage area of the site differs by more than 50 percent of the gaged site, that is, AA/Ag is greater than 0.5, equation 11 should not be used, and the results of estimating equations 1 to 7 should be used without adjustment.

Page 11: Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4207 · 2011. 1. 12. · Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4207 Prepared in cooperation with ILLINOIS DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORATION,

Example 3: For this example, assume the site in example 1 is located on the Sangamon River downstream from gaging station 05572000 Sangamon River at Monticello, Illinois (map No. 307). The drainage area, from table 2, is 550 mi 2 for the gaging station. The procedure is as follows:

First computation:

1-5. Same as example 1, site Q50 = 18,000 ft 3 /s.

Second computation:

6. Same as example 2, gage weighted Q50 "= 17,000 ft 3 /s; or, the weighted may be selected from table 1, line 3 for station 05572000.

Third computation:

7. From table 1, select the Q5Q that was computed using equation 5 for the station (second line). Q50 = 14,200 ft 3 /s.

8. AA _ 625-550 _ 0 14 [This is less than 0.5, therefore, r 1 should AQ 550 " " be computed and used to adjust Q5g (eq. 5).]

9. Compute the adjustment ratio, r, using equation 9.

= weighted) _ 17,000 ft 3 /s _ 1>2 Q.

Q50 (gage, eq. 5) 14,200 ft 3 /s

10. Compute the adjustment factor, r 1 , using equation 10.

r 1 = r - n AA (r-1.00) 0.5AG

11. Compute the adjusted Q5g at the site using equation 11

Q50 (adjusted) = Q5Q (eq. 5) r 1

= 18,000 ft 3/s (1.15)

= 20,700 ft 3 /s.

This is the best estimate for the ung&ged site on the Sangamon River.

The site for which flood- frequency calcul.ations are desired may sometimes be between two gaged sites on the same stream. The 50-percent rule should be applied to determine which gaged site, if any, should be used to make the adjustment. If the ungaged site is within 50 percent of both gaged sites, the frequency calculations for the ungaged site can be made by interpolation of the weighted station values Qrp for each gaged site. Again, interpolation should be on the basis of drainage area.

Regulated and Urban Streams

The regional equations are not appropriate for making flood-frequency estimates on the main stem of the following regulated streams:

Big Muddy RiverFox RiverIllinois RiverSaline River (below mouth of Cypress Ditch).

Flood peaks on these streams are altered by channel improvements, levees, dams, diversion, or interbasin flow. For the Big Muddy, Fox, and Illinois Rivers, flood frequencies may be estimated for ungaged sites by interpolation between gaged sites on the basis of drainage area. This interpolation is facilitated by the graphs shown in figures 7 through 9.

Many of the flood discharges recorded for Saline River near Junction include interbasin flow from the Wabash River through Cypress Ditch just up­ stream from the gaging station. The magnitude of the interbasin flow depends on the stages of the Wabash River that, in turn, are dependent on the stages of the Ohio River. Frequently the stages of the Saline River near Junction are affected by backwater from the Ohio River. The complexity of flood conditions precludes the use of the regionalized equations for estimating the frequency of floods on the Saline River downstream from Cypress Ditch.

Alien and Bejcek (1979) presented a technique for estimating flood-peak discharges and frequencies on urban streams in northeastern Illinois. A suggested transferability-of-urban-effeet technique was also presented. It was assumed that the effects of urbanization on flood peaks in northeastern Illinois may be similar to urban effects in other parts of Illinois. Based on this assumption, the equations for rural streams on page 3, along with proce­ dures in the report by Alien and Bejcek (1979), may be used to estimate flood frequencies on urban streams in other parts of Illinois. These estimates should be checked by any other available methods.

ACCURACY AND LIMITATION OF ESTIMATING TECHNIQUE

The accuracy of equations 1 to 7 is expressed by the standard error of prediction, in percent and in equivalent years of record. The standard error of prediction (Stedinger and Tasker, 1986b) is a measure of the accuracy with which the regression model can estimate the T-year flood at an ungaged site. The true value of the T-year flood in log units will be within plus or minus one standard error of prediction from the predicted value about two times out of three. The standard error of prediction was determined in log units and converted to percent and equivalent years of record by techniques given in Hardison (1971). Equivalent years of record indicates the number of years of streamflow record that provides an estimate equal in accuracy to the standard error of prediction.

The accuracy of equations 1 to 7 is summarized in table 4. The equivalent years of record in table 4 represents an average equivalent year of record for the estimating equations. Individual station equivalent years of record from table 2 should be used in equation 8 for weighting the independent estimates.

Page 13: Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4207 · 2011. 1. 12. · Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4207 Prepared in cooperation with ILLINOIS DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORATION,

The flood-frequency equations in this report may be used to estimate flood-peak discharges and frequencies on most Illinois nonregulated rural streams for drainage areas ranging from 0.02 to 10,000 mi 2 , slopes ranging from 0.7 to 230 ft/mi, and 24-hour 2-year rainfall intensity from 2.6 to 3.6 inches. The equations are not applicable to streams where floodflows are appreciably affected by natural or reservoir storage; channel changes; diversions; urbanization; unusual hydrogeologic or morphologic conditions such as in karst terrane, bluff-flood plain combinations (streams that transverse the bluff and adjacent flood plain of major rivers); or other unaccounted for conditions that affect floodflow.

DATA ANALYSES

Discharge data used in the station flood-frequency and regional analyses were obtained from the surface-water gaging-station network maintained by the Survey. Annual peak discharges from 394 continuous-record and crest-stage partial-record stations having 10 years or more of record were used in the flood-frequency analyses. Of these stations, 383 are located in Illinois, 4 in Indiana, and 7 in Wisconsin (figs. 1 and 2). Peak flows from 268 of the 394 stations represent nonregulated rural sites, and these data were used in the regional analyses. Annual peak-flow records collected through September 30, 1985, were used in this report.

Drainage area (A) and slope (S) were determined from either topographicmaps, field surveys, aerial photographs, or asThe rainfall intensity (I) represents the 24-hour 2-year rainfall-durationfrequency and was determined from Hershfield (

published in Survey reports.

1961).

The map number, station number, and station name and location for the 394 stations are shown in table 1.

Station Flood-Frequency Analyses

Flood-frequency analyses define the relation of flood-peak discharges to exceedance probabilities or recurrence intervals. Exceedance probability is the chance that a given discharge will be exceeded in any one year. Recurrence interval is the reciprocal of the exceedance probability times 100 and is the average time interval between occurrences of a flood-peak discharge of a given or greater magnitude. For example, a flood having an exceedance probability of 0.01 has a recurrence interval of 100 years; or, a 100-year flood may be exceeded on the average of once in 100 years. I However, probability only describes the likelihood of a random event occurring, and a flood magnitude of a given recurrence interval may be exceeded in] a much shorter period of time.

Flood-frequency relations for 394 gaging stations were defined using the Hydrology Subcommittee of Interagency Advisory Committee on Water Data (1982) guidelines. These guidelines outline procedures to fit logarithms of observed annual-peak data to the Pearson Type III distribution.

A computer was used to perform frequency computations and plots for 394 gaging stations. The computer calculated the following:

An array of N annual flood-peak discharges (Q) at a station were transformed into an array of corresponding base 10 logarithmic values (X)

XN

and the means of the logarithms were computed by

Next the standard deviation (SD) and skew coefficient (G) were computed by

(N-1)

and N Z(X-X) 3

0.5(13)

J_. _ respectively.

(N-1)(N-2)(SD) 3 (14)

The technique for fitting log-Pearson Type III distributions to observed annual peaks is to compute the base 10 logarithms of the discharge (Q) at selected exceedance probability (P) by the equation

Log Q = X + K(SD) (15)

where X is the mean of the logs of the annual peaks at a gaging station,and

K is a factor from tables in Hydrology Subcommittee (1982) that is a function of the skew coefficient (G) and selected exceedance probability.

The skew coefficient of peak flows at a station is sensitive to extreme events. Therefore, accurate estimates of skew require a long period of record. A generalized estimate of skew is recommended (Hydrology Subcommittee, 1982) for stations with short periods of record.

For this study, logarithms of annual-peak discharges were fitted to the Pearson Type III distribution giving weight to historical peaks and high out­ liers, omitting low outliers, and using the generalized skew map of the Hydrology Subcommittee (1982). For stations having less than 25 years of record, the generalized skew was used for computing the frequency relation. For those stations with record lengths longer than 25 years, the station skew was weighted with the generalized skew. A weighted skew is calculated by com­ bining the station and generalized skew coefficients using the equation:

MSEp(G) + MSEr (G~)GW = - £ ' (16)

+ MSE

Page 15: Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4207 · 2011. 1. 12. · Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4207 Prepared in cooperation with ILLINOIS DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORATION,

where GW = weighted skew coefficient,

G = station skew,

(3 = generalized skew,= mean-square error of generalized skew, and

= mean-square error of station skew

The flood-frequency curves for the individual stations were computed using equation 14. The discharge values from the individual station curve for recurrence intervals of 2, 5, 10, 25, 50, and 100 years are given in table 1. Log-Pearson Type III statistics used to develop the frequency relations for each station are shown in table 5.

Regional Analyses

Most sites where streamflow information is needed will not have stream- flow records available. Flood-peak discharges from individual stations have limited transferability; therefore, estimates of flood-peak discharges at ungaged sites should be based on regional analyses. The advantages of regional analyses are that (1) the flood-frequency relation is applicable to all ungaged sites in an entire region, and (2) the relation can improve the flood-frequency estimates at a gaged site.

Traditionally, regression models have used ordinary least squares (OLS)to estimate relations between steamflow chara :teristics and relevant physio­graphic variables such as drainage area and channel slope. Several investiga­ tors (Matalas and Benson, 1961; Matalas and Gilroy, 1968; Hardison, 1971; Moss and Karlinger, 1974; Tasker and Moss, 1979; and Moss, 1976, 1979) have examined the statistical precision and properties of OLS procedures with hydrologic data sets. The OLS approach can provide distorted estimates of the model's predic­ tive capability and the precision with which the regression model's parameters are estimated. Weighted (WLS) and generalized least squares (GLS) techniques were developed to deal with situations like those encountered in hydrology where a regression model's residuals are heteroscedastic and perhaps cross- correlated (Draper and Smith, 1981; Johnston, 1972). Stedinger and Tasker (1985, 1986a) compared the statistical performance of OLS, WLS, and GLS in situ­ ations where streamflow records at gaged sites can be of different and widely varying lengths and concurrent flows at different sites are cross-correlated. They found that the GLS procedure was superior and provided (1) more accurate parameter estimates, (2) better estimates of the accuracy with which the regres­ sion model's parameters were estimated, and (3) almost unbiased estimates of the model error.

A new improved statistical model (G. D. Tasker, A. M. Lumb, W. O. Thomas, and K. M. Flynn, U.S. Geological Survey, written commun., 1987) for analyzing hydrologic data was used in this study. This model, which uses GLS in a multiple regression analysis, was used to define the flood-frequency relations in equations 1 to 7.

Multiple-regression analyses were used to relate peak flows as dependent variables to the basin characteristics and a climatic factor as independent variables. Variables were transformed to a log of base 10 before analyses for

the principal reasons to (1) linearize the regression equation, (2) stabilize the variance of the residuals about the regression equation, and (3) normalize the distribution of the residuals about the regression equation. After analy­ ses, the log equations were transformed by taking the antilog into the final equation format as shown in equation 17. Discharges corresponding to the 2-, 5-, 10-, 25-, 50-, 100-, and 500-year recurrence-interval flood were defined at 268 nonregulated rural gaging stations by using the log-Pearson Type II:E distribution and were regressed against the basin and climatic variables using the multiple regression model:

QT = aAbBc .......Nn (17)

where QT = flood-peak discharge, in cubic feet per second, havinga T-year recurrence interval,

A,B,...N = drainage basin and climatic variables, b,c,...n = regression coefficients, and

a = regression constant.

Combinations of independent variables such as drainage area, main channel length, slope, storage (lakes and ponds), forest cover, soil index factor, and rainfall intensity index were evaluated in a preliminary ordinary multiple regression analyses for computing the dependent variable T-year recurrence interval flood. Only the significant independent variables were used in the GLS analysis, and they are drainage area (A), slope (S), and rainfall inten­ sity (I).

Curtis (1977b) showed that significant differences in flood peaks could be related to geographic regions of the State as well as to drainage area, slope, and rainfall intensity. The boundaries for the geographic regions were delineated based on physiographic divisions, drainage-basin boundaries, and residual patterns. To account for geographic variation, a regional factor (Rf) was included in the regression analyses. A technique by Tasker (G. D. Tasker, U.S. Geological Survey, Reston, Virginia, written comraun., 1986) was used to compute the regional factors. The factors were computed using "dummy" variables in the regression analyses. Detailed explanations of dummy variables in regressions can be found in Draper and Smith (1981) and Montgomery and Peck (1982).

Equations 1 to 7 are applicable statewide. Data for 268 nonregulated rural stations having drainage areas ranging from 0.02 to 9,500 mi 2 and slopes from 0.74 to 229 ft/mi were used to develop the equations. The variables required to solve the equations are drainage area (A), slope (S), rainfall intensity (I) and regional factor (Rf).

Drainage area represents the area that contributes to direct surface run­ off, in square miles. Slope, in feet per mile, is the main-channel slope and is determined between points 10 percent and 85 percent of the total distance measured along the low-water channel from the site to the basin divide. Drainage area and slope are determined from topographic maps.

The rainfall intensity is the maximum 24-hour rainfall, in inches, expected to be equaled or exceeded on an average of once every 2 years.

Rainfall intensity (fig. 3) was obtained from Hershfield (1961). A constant of 2.5 was subtracted from the rainfall intensity to obtain the best fit to the linear regression equation.

The regional factor (table 3) removes regional bias and is dimensionless. The State is divided into four regions (fig. 4). The regions are the same as the areas defined in a previous study by Curtis (1977b).

Equations 1 to 7 may be used to improve the flood estimates at a gaged site. A procedure for weighting the flood estimates from the regional equa­ tions with the flood estimates from station data is provided in the Hydrology Subcommittee (1982) guidelines and in Curtis (1977a). This procedure is shown on page 6 and is based upon the assumption that the estimates are independent, which for practical purposes is true in mostj situations.

In table 1, the independent estimates of flood discharges were weighted using equation 8 to calculate the "best" flood estimates for the 268 stations used in the regional analysis.

Flood estimates for an ungaged site on a gaged stream may be improved by adjusting the ungaged site flood estimates with the flood estimates at the gaged site. Equation 11 provides a procedure for adjusting the site estimates.

SUMMARY

Equations, maps, tables, and graphs are^ presented to provide a means for estimating flood-peak discharges having recurrence intervals of 2, 5, 10, 25, 50, 100, and 500 years for nonregulated rural streams in Illinois. The flood- frequency equations may be used to estimate discharges on most streams ranging from 0.02 to 10,000 mi^ with slopes ranging from 0.7 to 230 ft/mi. A proce­ dure is provided for weighting independent estimates of discharge at a gaging station.

Graphical relations of station flood-peak discharges versus drainage area are presented for the regulated Big Muddy, Fox, and Illinois Rivers. For these streams, flood-peak discharges may be estimated for ungaged sites by interpola­ tion between stations on the basis of drainage area. Suggested procedures for estimating flood discharges on urban streams in northeastern Illinois and for transferring urban effect on stream estimates to other parts of Illinois are discussed.

Flood-frequency relations were defined for 394 gaged sites using the log-Pearson Type III frequency distribution and guidelines outlined by the Hydrology Subcommittee (1982). Two hundred pixty-eight (268) of the 394 sta­ tions were used in multiple regression analyses using a new improved procedure (G. D. Tasker, A. M. Lumb, W. O. Thomas, and K. M. Flynn, U.S. Geological Survey, written commun., 1987) to develop statewide estimating equations.

The regression analyses indicated that the independent variables drainage area (A), slope (S), rainfall intensity (I), and a regional factor (Rf) are the most significant for estimating flood peaks on Illinois streams. These

variables result in estimating flood-peak values with a standard error of model ranging from 34.9 to 50.3 percent. One estimating equation for each recurrence interval provides a straightforward technique for describing flood- peak discharges on both small and large streams in Illinois.
