Step 8 – Assess Floodplain Levee Conveyance and Storage • Qualitatively assess (i.e., without numerical modeling) combined effects of floodway lowering and setback levee areas to answer question “How far should levees be setback?” • Assess setback levee distances required to optimize channel-floodplain storage. • Assess benefits of non-uniform floodplain levee storage by maintaining/modifying existing levees and/or creative floodway vegetation plantings. • Assess potential for fish stranding after flood events in lowered floodway areas. • Assess creative solutions to maintain land uses while increasing flood protection.
Estimate Setback Levee Width to Optimize Floodplain Storage • Total discharge through a leveed channel section is • Or in current terms, Q=Wc*C*(S^0.5)*[(D^1.5)+(W/Wc-1)*(D-Dc)^1.5] • If Q remains the same between existing and setback levee conditions, then Q = Qe = Qs and, • Ws = 1+Wc*((((De^1.5)+(((We/Wc)-1)*((De-Dc)^1.5))-((Ds/De)*De)^1.5)))/((Ds/De)*De)-Dc)^1.5)
Additional Design Concepts • Natural levee emulation • Non-uniform floodplain levee storage • Strategic flow resistance schemes • Levee modifications
