• Collect hydrologic data - peak dischargerates, flow duration curve, mean andmonthly flow rates, annual flood series,flood history, climatic data, etc.• Measure channel planform characteristics– channel pattern, meander features, pooland riffle spacing, width, slope, periodicity<strong>of</strong> narrow and wide reaches.• Identify evidence <strong>of</strong> pale<strong>of</strong>loods.• Identify stream analogs on adjacent watersheds.• Evaluate tributary characteristics – drainagearea, slope, sediment type, sedimentyield, flow rates, location <strong>of</strong> confluence.• Assess impacts <strong>of</strong> tributaries and tributarysediment load on main channel morphology.• Apply applicable methodologies from the<strong>District</strong> Piedmont <strong>Flood</strong> Hazard AssessmentManual (Draft, August 1998) to identifysurface ages and stability.• Perform stream classification.• Define stream reaches.Hydraulic and Empirical Analyses. Engineeringanalyses based on hydraulic data obtainedfrom a HEC-RAS model <strong>of</strong> the study reachwill be performed to assess the potential forbank erosion and scour. These analyses willbe used to determine whether a stream is stable,whether it is likely to experience bank erosionand/or scour, and what amount <strong>of</strong> lateralerosion is likely to occur. Where hydraulicdata are required, the computations will bebased on 2-, 10-, and 100-year reach-averagedhydraulic data. Specific tasks include the following:• Revision <strong>of</strong> HEC-RAS model as describedabove.• Define stream reaches using hydraulicdata and physical stream characteristics.• Determine reach-averaged hydraulic data.• Compute allowable velocity.• Compute scour depths (general, local, andlong-term).• Compute armoring potential & depth toarmor.• Compute equilibrium slope.• Compute reach sediment continuity relationships.• Apply lane relation to stream reaches.• Apply regime equations to stream reaches.• Apply hydraulic geometry relationships tostream reaches.• Apply empirical channel geometry relationshipsto stream reaches.• Apply appropriate regional lateral stabilityprediction methodologies – these mayinclude the AMAFCA Prudent Line,ADWR State Standard 5-96, King County(WA) methodology, Rosgen bank assessmenttechniques, etc.Impacts Analysis. The proposed developmentwill be modeled to assess the potential downstreamand upstream impacts, using the sameprocedures and methodologies listed above.Final ProductThe final product for these tasks will include amap showing the recommended erosion hazardzone boundaries and a final report. Thefinal report will include the following:• Discussion <strong>of</strong> assumptions and limitations<strong>of</strong> methodologies.31
