The likelihood of occurrence is considered moderate. Loss impact of <br />future occurrence is less likely due to mitigation projects to correct flooding problems although <br />the impact will continue to be moderate. <br /> <br />Coon Rapids located along the east bank of the Mississippi River experienced flooding from the <br />Mississippi River in April of 1965, 1997 and 2001. All three years were the result of heavy spring <br />rains combined with heavy winter snowfall amounts in the Mississippi River drainage areas. <br />The southwest corner of the city requires sandbagging for approximately 25 homes. Additional <br />sandbagging is necessary for an additional 12 properties in the northwest corner of the city. The <br />river overflowing its banks threatens homes and property, utilities, and back-flooding of sanitary <br />and storm water sewer systems. Out of banks flooding is likely to occur once or twice per <br />decade. Future impact is considered moderate. <br /> <br />Blaine experiences minimal localized flooding with extensive rains and melting snow runoff, but <br />occurrences are infrequent and the impact minimal. <br /> <br />Oak Grove which is located adjacent to the Rum River and experiences minimal flooding with <br />extensive rains and melting snow runoff but occurrences are infrequent and the impact minimal. <br /> <br />Lino Lakes, Spring Lake Park and St. Francis experience storm-water flooding during periods of <br />heavy rain. The flooding is infrequent and the impact minimal. <br /> <br />Anoka County has several dams within planning area. The inundation threat to business and <br />residential areas from a failure is low based on the location of the dams and a review of the <br />Emergency Action Plan for each of the dams that are required to have an emergency action <br />plan. The plans for the Coon Rapids Dam and Oronoco Dam were reviewed and the risk to
