"A preliminary version of Regulation of flood hazard areas to reduce flood losses, vol. 3 was published in 1982 by the Natural Hazards Research and Applications Information Center, University of Colorado, as Special publication #2.

Its appendices, documenting the state and local floodplain management programs that were surveyed as background for the main report, were released separately in 1982 as Special Publication #3, Strengthening state floodplain management, and Special Publication #4, Innovation in local floodplain management.

To prepare this final version, those three volumes were reviewed, revised and consolidated in cooperation with the Natural Hazards Information Center, and supplemented by a compilation of court cases decided during the 1970s and examples of state statutes and local ordinaces."--P. ii.
