Documents and assesses programs and services in Arizona that address child welfare, and defines goals, objectives, and measures for the future; part of Federal reporting requirements for Title IV-B and Title IV-E programs.
The Division of Children, Youth and Families is the state administered child welfare services agency responsible for developing the Child and Family Services Plan and administering the title IV-B programs under the plan. The Division provides child protective services; services within the Promoting Safe and Stable Families program; family support, preservation, and reunification services; family foster care and kinship care services; services to promote the safety, permanence, and well-being of children with foster and adoptive families; adoption promotion and support services; and health care services for children in out-of-home care.
Compared to national averages, Arizona’s number of child abuse or neglect reports has been similar or higher and its substantiation rate lower, and the Office of Child Welfare investigations is unique among states.
Covers an area in southeastern Pima County that drains the Arivaca Creek watershed. The purpose of the report is to estimate peak discharge for the 50 year storm frequency event, utilizing the rational method (Q=CiA). This method pre-dates that outlined in the Hydrology Manual for Engineering Design and Floodplain Management within Pima County, Sept. 1979, and is considered less accurate. It is recommended that this report be archived and discontinued for use for regulatory purposes.
This report is the first phase of a study to provide a basin management plan for the Tucson Mountain Drainage Basin. Phase II will identify and evaluate alternative specific solutions to flood plain management measures with Phase III accomplishing conceptual designs for the selected alternatives.
The purpose of the study is to identify existing flooding problems for fifteen homes adjacent and west of Holladay Street which have experienced flooding in the past three years. A 1991 follow-up report is included that corrects an error in the earlier report's estimation of the split flow quantities at the intersection.
This report describes the hydrologic and hydraulic analysis. Development in the lower end of the watershed has occurred without knowledge of the floodplain's characteristics.
The purpose of the Phase I study is to evaluate existing drainage conditions and to identify alternative flood control/floodplain management strategies which warrant further consideration.
This study was developed to identify the resources and applicable methodology for the delineation of primary flood corridors.
Originally, the purpose of the study was to obtain either a Letter of Map Revision or a Physical Map Revision from the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Unfortunately, during the initial stages of the investigation, it became apparent that FEMA's guidelines for these types of map revisions could not be accommodated, primarily due to flow-distribution conflicts.
