These two drawings are presented here for easy reference and comparison of the improvement achieved by constructing the recommended channel .. improvements. Plates 111-3 through 111-12 represent drainageway planning drawings for Niver Creek in the form of plan and profile sheets. The drawings indicate the proposed channel and structure improvements and the lOO-year flood plain which corresponds to the improved channel. Structure and channel improvements can be handled in a number of ways; therefore, design capacities are shown for each structure and channel reach in order to allow future development complete flexi- bility. The information shown on the drawings will allow developers and munici- palities to proceed with future development in an orderly and compatible manner, These drawings should not be used for final construction of individua I structures without a detai led investigation of topography, utilities and other items normally required for final design. The following discussion presents the design criteria and philosophy used in arriving at the proposed channel and structure modifications. The discussion is arranged to coincide with the drawings.
