<br />I. INTRODUCTION <br /> <br />The North Ouray. Uncompahg,-e River Redevelopment project will involve improvememts to nearly <br /> <br /> <br />5.000 feet of the Uncompahgre River within the City of Ouray. The primary goals of the project are to reduce <br /> <br /> <br />the flood plain limits and enhance the river corridor. These two goals will be achieved by alterations to the <br /> <br /> <br />channel. which will return the Uncompahgre River to a more stable geomorphic state and result in confinement <br /> <br /> <br />of the flood plain. <br /> <br /> <br />This report serves as a supplement to the CLOMR application for the North Ouray, Uncompahgre <br /> <br /> <br />River Redevelopment Project. The plrpose of the work presented in this report was to set the general <br /> <br /> <br />geomorphic and sediment transport guiclelines for developing a fiood control and river enhancement project <br /> <br /> <br />which will develop a channel in a statE> of quasi-dynamic equilibrium. To achieve this purpose, the work <br /> <br /> <br />involved geomorphic assessment of the existing channel, clevelopment of project channel cross-sectional and <br /> <br /> <br />plan form geometry to satisfy geomorphi,: and sediment transpoli: conditions. and assessment of the hydraulic <br /> <br /> <br />and sediment transport characteristics of the proposed channel. Efforts conducted on the project included <br /> <br /> <br />two site visits, collection of bed material samples, geomorphic analysis. hydrologic analysis, interaction with <br /> <br /> <br />Foley and Associates on hydraulic analysis and design, and sediment transport analyses. The actual <br /> <br /> <br />hydraulic analyses. channel design implementation and preparation of construction drawings and <br /> <br /> <br />specifications for the Uncompahgre River Redevelopment Project were performed by Foley and Associates. <br /> <br /> <br />The results of FLO's effort are presented in the following six chapters. A general description of the <br /> <br /> <br />project site and Ouray area is presented in Chapter 2. Hydrologic information used in the geomorphic, <br /> <br /> <br />hydraulic and sediment transport analy;es are developed in Chapter 3. Geomorphic analyses of existing <br /> <br /> <br />condition and development of the project condition geomorphic parameters are presented in Chapter 4. The <br /> <br /> <br />results and comparison of existing and project condition hydraulic analyses are provided in Chapter 5. The <br /> <br /> <br />analysis of sediment transport conditions is presented in Chapter 6. Chapter 7 summarizes the analysis and <br /> <br /> <br />conclusions concerning the proposed pl'Oject. <br /> <br />1.1 <br />
