55' - The river threatens to overtop levees or floodwalls near the mouth of the Kansas river near James Street. Additional height must be added to the levees or floodwalls to prevent overtopping. Overtopping of the levees and floodwalls would result in serious flooding of the Central Industrial District and other areas adjacent to the river. This would include the arenas located in the West Bottoms.

33' - Undeveloped woodland along the river and outside of levee protection is flooded. No flooding of areas behind the levees is expected.
