Increase resiliency and protect recreation facilities, historic, cultural sites and points of diversion to peak flows; Improve public safety

Approach

Tactics

Restore watershed function by reconnecting stream channels to floodplains, dispersing flow and reducing the intensity of flood events on campgrounds and other facilities.
Move or structurally modify points of diversion where they are vulnerable.
Relocate recreation facilities.
Identify potential areas for early warning systems to notify visitors of dangers.

Sensitivity

• Higher peak flows will increase vulnerability of points of diversion (PODs) and damage or disrupt access to facilities and cultural and historical resources. The potential increased use of facilities may exacerbate safety hazards.

Strategy

Design and modify infrastructure to match future conditions
