This book was released on 1984 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report provides guidance for incorporating environmental considerations into streambank protection projects. The stability of the stream-banks of a channel is related to both site-specific and basinwide stream reach factors. Streambank erosion or failure is a natural fluvial process that is often accelerated by changes in gotechnical or hydraulic factors and especially the activities of man, e.g., reservoir construction or land use changes. Streambank protection projects stabilize the streambank, preventing or stopping erosion. Stabilization results in a range of environmental changes. An information review was performed to identify environmental features for streambank protection projects. Environmental features are those planning, design, construction, and maintenance procedures or practices that minimize adverse environmental impacts or enhance terrestrial and aquatic habitas and the aesthetic quality of land and water associated with streambank protection projects. Such features include structural and nonstructural designs; construction procedures that are environmentally compatible; maintenance procedures; and institutional, planning, and management approaches for streambank protection projects. Each feature discussed in terms of concept, the purpose or appropriate use of the feature, environmental considerations, limitations to use of the feature, performance history, and cost.

This book was released on 1985 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many negative environmental impacts can be avoided by designing flood channels that are in harmony with other fluvial components, minimizing disruptions to existing fluvial and biological systems, and incorporating environmental features into flood channel design. Environmental features are defined as any structures or actions employed in the planning, design, construction, or maintenance of flood control channels that produce environmental benefits. Environmental features may include modifications of standard techniques, such as selective clearing and snagging or single bank construction; modified channel designs, such as low flow channels, pools and riffles, and meandering alignments; structures for erosion and sediment control, water level management, and instream habitat; inclusion of recreational features in project design; and special designs and treatments for aesthetic purposes. Procedures are presented for the design of environmental features. These procedures are based largely on prior experience with the use of environmental features on modified channels and on fluvial processes and natural stream geometry. Tables are provided to help select the best environmental features based on environmental objectives and stream and watershed conditions.
