Rock'. <br />Creek project illustrates the difficulty of addressin~rquestions related to <br />sediment transport with a generalized procedure. T~". need to address a <br />wide range of site specific conditions requires a fl~ible procedure that <br />is not subject to a handbook-type solution. Furthe1l1!iore, the nature of <br />sediment transport calculations requires specialized d<l'aining and experi- <br />ence to achieve realistic results. Even when a geneUqlized procedure can <br />be outlined, application. of that procedure must b~adone with complete <br />understanding of underlying assumptions and backgroun~~onditions. <br /> <br />REFERENCES <br /> <br />1. .
