The downstream view of the V-structure shows how it is designedto accommodate <br />varying flow levels. <br /> <br />Low Flow <br /> <br />The lowest flow rate claimed is 120 cfs. Water at this flow rate will be controlled and <br />diverted throughout the Boating Park and will not be wasted. The low flow rate for which the <br />Boating Park was designed was based on basic hydraulic formulas coupled with a working <br />knowledge of this segment ofthe Yampa River and its characteristics. The structures are <br />hydraulically and structurally sound, with anchors into the bed and banks of the river that were <br />made of large stone and concrete. <br /> <br />The structures and their elevation/configuration were designed to provide depth for <br />boating during flows lower than 120 cfs, even when the whitewater wave features are not <br />present. <br /> <br />-9- <br />
