Description
In this January 1997 photograph, waters of a flooded American River tear below Folsom's Rainbow Bridge. At the time of the flood, only seven percent of Sacramento properties absorbing damage held flood insurance. Overall, and at the time of the innundation, 60,000 Sacramentans were insured for flooding, accounting for nearly one-quarter of all policies in the state.
