Book Description
The purpose of this study was to evaluate channel management in pool 3 and upper pool 4 on the Mississippi River. The study area is from the head of Lake Pepin upstream to Look and Dam 2 at Hastings, MN. A lateral current problem below Lock and Dam 2 might be solved by extending the lower guard wall, but this would need further study. Shoaling problems were identified in the Big River reach, and shoaling and associated channel maintenance requirements are needed at river miles 799-803. Restoration of 4 wing dams at river mile 805 is recommended to reduce shoaling. Fish habitat benefits will be achieved through notching 18 wing dams and partial removal of another. The notches are designed to promote the formation of scour holes and channels to improve bathymetric diversity. Construction of a new spot dike at Carter Slough (river mile 807.3) is recommended to prevent habitat degradation occurring as a result of a bypass of the existing spot dike, and to assure the long term integrity of pool 3.

Managing Flood Risk
Author: Anna Serra-Llobet
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319716735
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 181
Book Description
The past half century has seen an evolution in thinking from ‘flood control’ to ‘flood risk management’, recognizing that risk results from both hazard and vulnerability. Rather than rely only on engineering structures to reduce flood magnitude or extent, recent policies emphasize avoiding construction in flood-prone areas (or moving people from floodplains), reducing impacts on exposed populations through early warning systems, and insurance to aid in recovery. Implementing this new approach faces many challenges but also offers opportunities for synergies, as described in this book for a range of large floodplain rivers and smaller urban streams across North America and Europe. This book is unique in presenting the voices of those on the front lines of implementing a new paradigm in flood risk management, each river with a unique set of challenges and opportunities derived from its specific geography as well as differences in governance between the American and European contexts.
