Use Figure 22.2 along with Figure 22.1 to determine the gage height of these flood frequencies. (Use the flood frequency curve in Figure 22.2 to obtain the discharge, and then use that discharge on the rating curve to determine the associated gage height.)
20-year flood: ________________
300-year flood: ________________
400-year flood: ________________
20-year flood: 14 m
300-year flood: 16.6 m
