Increase resiliency of the floodplain

Approach

Tactics

Restore natural function of the floodplain allowing waterways to migrate.
Remove or modify infrastructure allowing channels to migrate within the floodplain.

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

Sustain fundamental physical and ecological functions
