0:00:00.600,0:00:01.100
Hello.

0:00:01.100,0:00:04.000
It's Joe Wheaton, and, we're going

0:00:04.000,0:00:07.100
to start in on this design module.

0:00:07.100,0:00:09.700
Just getting off on the right foot.

0:00:09.700,0:00:11.450
And that is,

0:00:11.450,0:00:13.200
taking out of the planning phase,

0:00:14.000,0:00:15.450
what we learned,

0:00:15.450,0:00:16.900
and leading the design with recovery potential

0:00:16.900,0:00:19.900
from that.

0:00:20.900,0:00:22.600
So we're here

0:00:22.600,0:00:25.600
in module four talking about design.

0:00:26.000,0:00:27.400
In the restoration process,

0:00:27.400,0:00:29.000
we spent module three

0:00:29.000,0:00:30.600
working through the planning.

0:00:30.800,0:00:33.300
Okay, and it's easy

0:00:33.300,0:00:36.100
To just kind of jump in and, like,[br]you know.

0:00:36.100,0:00:37.800
You know, we're eager. Let's just

0:00:37.800,0:00:38.600
Let's get a design.

0:00:38.600,0:00:41.600
Let's, let's make some structures.

0:00:42.400,0:00:43.950
I'm just going to try and convince you of[br]this,

0:00:43.950,0:00:45.500
never to start a design without that.

0:00:45.500,0:00:46.300


0:00:46.300,0:00:49.300
Critical context from the planning phase.

0:00:49.800,0:00:52.400
Well, what context explicitly

0:00:52.400,0:00:55.400
are we talking about?

0:00:56.000,0:00:58.200
Well, we're talking about

0:00:58.200,0:00:59.700
getting the conditions

0:00:59.700,0:01:01.200
and the recovery potential.

0:01:01.200,0:01:03.400
And remember that in the design phase,

0:01:04.400,0:01:06.900
our alternatives, our design opportunities

0:01:06.900,0:01:08.650
is really defined by the gap

0:01:08.650,0:01:10.400
between condition and recovery potential.

0:01:11.100,0:01:13.200
And, you know, we've got to make

0:01:13.200,0:01:15.300
this judgment call on how many treatments will.

0:01:15.300,0:01:17.700
It take to get to that recovery.[br]Potential.

0:01:17.700,0:01:20.500
And then if you and once you get there,

0:01:20.500,0:01:21.850
what's it going to take for it

0:01:21.850,0:01:23.200
to become self-sustaining?

0:01:23.200,0:01:25.500
Okay.

0:01:25.500,0:01:28.000
Oh, that's interesting.

0:01:28.000,0:01:31.000
not what I wanted.

0:01:34.900,0:01:37.900
Okay.

0:01:40.300,0:01:45.800
So coming right in,[br]you know, reminding yourself.

0:01:45.800,0:01:48.500
Riverscapes principles,[br]reminding ourselves that streams.

0:01:48.500,0:01:49.800
Need space.

0:01:49.800,0:01:53.500
We're not going to start our design[br]without the valley bottom mapped.

0:01:53.700,0:01:56.700
Okay.

0:01:57.300,0:01:58.700
It's always important to remind yourself

0:01:58.700,0:02:02.800
that definition of a valley bottom[br]and a riverscape valley bottom.

0:02:03.900,0:02:06.200
Is the area,

0:02:06.200,0:02:09.200
of the landscape[br]that could plausibly flood,

0:02:09.900,0:02:12.500
By the rivers and streams in the natural,

0:02:13.500,0:02:15.600
contemporary flow regime?

0:02:15.600,0:02:17.600
The riverscape is just those valley.

0:02:17.600,0:02:20.600
Bottoms,[br]throughout the entire drainage network.

0:02:20.800,0:02:23.100
Okay.

0:02:23.100,0:02:24.600
So this is, this is our.

0:02:24.600,0:02:26.300
Our sort of mantra.

0:02:26.300,0:02:29.600
So let's go back to what you guys did[br]yesterday.

0:02:30.800,0:02:36.100
In module three, you mapped the active[br]channels, you mapped the fans.

0:02:36.100,0:02:37.900
You did that to kind of back into what.

0:02:37.900,0:02:39.300
The valley bottom was, right?

0:02:39.300,0:02:41.000
The rest of the space.

0:02:41.000,0:02:43.500
And so you. Mapped these, valley.

0:02:43.500,0:02:45.800
Bottom margins, mapped those fans

0:02:45.800,0:02:48.400
so, you knew what[br]protruded out into the valley,

0:02:48.400,0:02:49.800
and you mapped the channel.

0:02:49.800,0:02:51.500
So you get the confining margin.

0:02:51.500,0:02:54.500
Look at the position, on the valley floor.

0:02:55.500,0:02:57.000
So the green area.

0:02:57.000,0:02:58.500
Is roughly what you derived. Okay.

0:02:58.500,0:03:00.800
That's your valley bottom area[br]that could plausibly.

0:03:00.800,0:03:03.300
Flood[br]in the contemporary natural flow regime.

0:03:04.500,0:03:05.900
Your design opportunity.

0:03:05.900,0:03:06.700
As we said.

0:03:06.700,0:03:09.600
Is defined by this gap[br]between condition recovery potential.

0:03:09.600,0:03:10.400
And so.

0:03:10.400,0:03:13.400
What we talked about is.

0:03:13.500,0:03:14.500
both Weber and I,

0:03:14.500,0:03:17.500
talked about this is to get,

0:03:19.000,0:03:22.700
At least one expression of condition, one[br]indicator of condition.

0:03:23.000,0:03:27.400
We're going to split the valley bottom[br]that we have here in yellow into,

0:03:28.400,0:03:31.800
these different, components,[br]but they're actually tier

0:03:31.800,0:03:34.800
one geomorphic units[br]in the fluvial taxonomy.

0:03:35.400,0:03:36.500
So basically active.

0:03:36.500,0:03:39.500
Floodplain, active channel,[br]inactive floodplain.

0:03:39.600,0:03:42.600
Okay, so.

0:03:45.800,0:03:47.600
we could do this for this whole thing.

0:03:47.600,0:03:49.500
But, at this scale, it's.

0:03:49.500,0:03:52.500
It's kind of hard to see, so

0:03:52.800,0:03:54.100
We're going to zoom in.

0:03:54.100,0:03:56.400
We can zoom in here,

0:03:56.400,0:03:56.900
and we're going to.

0:03:56.900,0:03:59.900
Take you to tops.

0:03:59.900,0:04:01.000
Tops range.

0:04:01.000,0:04:03.300
Okay.

0:04:03.300,0:04:05.400
So just a reminder, we said

0:04:05.400,0:04:09.300
condition can be expressed by mapping[br]the inactive portion of floodplains.

0:04:09.300,0:04:11.900
And we have this example here okay.

0:04:11.900,0:04:16.800
And so, I've faked, hypothetical property.

0:04:16.800,0:04:17.300
Boundaries.

0:04:17.300,0:04:21.000
You know, it's kind of looking at,[br]some fence lines and some other stuff.

0:04:21.000,0:04:22.200
So there you go.

0:04:22.200,0:04:23.500
There's pops ranch.

0:04:23.500,0:04:26.300
Okay, here's pops house.

0:04:26.300,0:04:27.700
There's this barn.

0:04:27.700,0:04:31.300
It's got a nice corral down here,[br]some outbuildings, etc..

0:04:31.400,0:04:31.900
Okay.

0:04:33.500,0:04:35.700
And so what I've done is I've gone and.

0:04:35.700,0:04:36.800
Just, you know, because.

0:04:36.800,0:04:39.400
I've zoomed[br]in, I can do a little nicer job.

0:04:39.400,0:04:41.700
First thing I did was I mapped.

0:04:41.700,0:04:43.800
The valley bottom.

0:04:43.800,0:04:45.800
I stopped it right here,[br]right at the property.

0:04:45.800,0:04:47.400
Line. Okay.

0:04:47.400,0:04:50.900
And it goes all along, and notice

0:04:50.900,0:04:53.100
here how I don't have the valley bottom.

0:04:53.100,0:04:55.700
Fall Creek mapped,[br]but the valley bottom, just.

0:04:55.700,0:04:57.000
The valley bottom of Coburn Creek,

0:04:57.000,0:05:00.200
And so this part that comes out,[br]I think some of you know what this.

0:05:00.200,0:05:02.800
Is, it's really low. Angle.

0:05:02.800,0:05:05.100
So it might be. A little deceiving.

0:05:05.100,0:05:07.100
But this is the fan.

0:05:07.100,0:05:09.400
It's the fan of Coburn Creek okay.

0:05:09.400,0:05:13.100
Now it doesn't matter[br]that this isn't really active fan right.

0:05:13.100,0:05:16.200
Necessarily like active in the sense[br]that this building could.

0:05:16.200,0:05:16.500
Still.

0:05:16.500,0:05:18.200
Be kind of flooding a little bit.

0:05:18.200,0:05:20.800
But this is what we're dealing with. Okay.

0:05:22.200,0:05:23.400
So this polygon

0:05:23.400,0:05:26.800
is 146 acres

0:05:26.800,0:05:29.800
and, if you want to go zoom[br]around the map, you can,

0:05:31.400,0:05:33.700
This is 82 acres.

0:05:33.700,0:05:33.900
Okay.

0:05:33.900,0:05:34.800
So this this link.

0:05:34.800,0:05:36.800
Is going to take you to this map[br]and these games that.

0:05:36.800,0:05:37.900
I played.

0:05:37.900,0:05:42.500
So 82 acres, Of Coburn Creek,[br]Valley bottom.

0:05:42.500,0:05:43.600
That's kind of what we're dealing with.

0:05:43.600,0:05:47.000
That's going to be, our basis for.

0:05:47.000,0:05:50.000
Normalization of everything[br]that we report.

0:05:50.300,0:05:53.200
Zoomed in here,[br]you can see that there is an area that's.

0:05:53.200,0:05:54.300
Grazed.

0:05:54.300,0:05:57.000
There's also a bunch of little relic[br]channels and stuff in here.

0:05:57.000,0:05:58.700
Not a relic, but like high status.

0:05:58.700,0:06:00.000
Channels, I should say.

0:06:00.000,0:06:03.900
There's actually some beaver[br]dams, on the floodplain here.

0:06:04.200,0:06:07.400
Oddly, over here[br]against the toe of this slope, too.

0:06:08.700,0:06:11.700
And there's evidence of run out.

0:06:11.700,0:06:13.900
If you zoom in, you will notice. That.

0:06:13.900,0:06:15.800
There is a canal.

0:06:15.800,0:06:17.700
And that canal comes along here.

0:06:18.600,0:06:20.100
And I don't know if these are.

0:06:20.100,0:06:22.600
Just. Trailing by. Cows or if this is.

0:06:22.600,0:06:23.600
Just kind of getting this.

0:06:23.600,0:06:24.700
Water over. To here.

0:06:24.700,0:06:25.600
And they just.

0:06:25.600,0:06:27.800
Irrigate, flood irrigate this meadow.

0:06:27.800,0:06:30.000
But, that's.

0:06:30.000,0:06:31.000
Some of the infrastructure.

0:06:31.000,0:06:33.600
There's also a fence that comes along.

0:06:33.600,0:06:37.100
You can basically make out the fence line[br]all along there.

0:06:37.700,0:06:40.700
All right.

0:06:40.700,0:06:43.700
So, conditions,

0:06:44.600,0:06:46.900
I mapped out the inactive.

0:06:46.900,0:06:48.700
Part of. The floodplain.

0:06:48.700,0:06:50.700
Just based off of objective.

0:06:50.700,0:06:51.400
Evidence of what.

0:06:51.400,0:06:54.400
It looked like. Was

0:06:54.400,0:06:57.200
what was flooding. Now,

0:06:57.200,0:07:00.600
use some vegetation indicators that use,[br]what looked like.

0:07:00.600,0:07:02.300
Evidence of flooding on this floodplain.

0:07:02.300,0:07:05.300
You can see a little bit[br]when you zoom in on this.

0:07:05.400,0:07:07.800
Is this perfect?

0:07:07.800,0:07:09.900
But I think it's reasonably defensible.

0:07:09.900,0:07:11.000
What did I come up with?

0:07:11.000,0:07:14.700
Well, I came up with when I mapped[br]traced out the active channel in blue.

0:07:15.500,0:07:16.800
That's about four acres.

0:07:16.800,0:07:18.800
So it's about 5% of the valley bottom.

0:07:20.200,0:07:22.300
I marked the inactive portion.

0:07:22.300,0:07:23.100
That's 41.

0:07:23.100,0:07:27.900
So, 41 plus four is 45.

0:07:27.900,0:07:28.900
Subtract from 82.

0:07:28.900,0:07:30.300
I get my 37 acres.

0:07:30.300,0:07:31.100
So the.

0:07:31.100,0:07:33.900
Proportion of the valley,[br]that's. Active is 50.

0:07:33.900,0:07:35.100
Percent and fits.

0:07:35.100,0:07:37.200
It's kind of dead[br]smack in the middle here.

0:07:37.200,0:07:40.200
Right. And sort of a moderate condition.

0:07:40.200,0:07:43.200
So remember we looked at this, right?

0:07:43.600,0:07:46.600
So, you know, we're we're somewhere in,

0:07:46.600,0:07:49.600
you know, something, along these lines,

0:07:50.600,0:07:53.300
If we were to use the.

0:07:53.300,0:07:53.700
More.

0:07:53.700,0:07:56.700
Expanded, which I think is useful here.

0:07:57.700,0:08:00.400
Stream[br]evolution model, it's probably in this.

0:08:00.400,0:08:02.800
Laterally active.

0:08:02.800,0:08:03.700
Condition. Right.

0:08:03.700,0:08:04.800
Archie Murphy conditions.

0:08:04.800,0:08:07.800
It's laterally active.

0:08:07.800,0:08:09.900
I say that, because the other.

0:08:09.900,0:08:11.400
Candidate might be.

0:08:11.400,0:08:14.100
Quasi equilibrium or stage.

0:08:14.100,0:08:16.100
One sinuous single thread.

0:08:16.100,0:08:18.200
If we go back.

0:08:18.200,0:08:19.900
You know, there is this sinuous single.

0:08:19.900,0:08:22.800
thread, but if you start zooming in,[br]you know, this.

0:08:22.800,0:08:25.300
does have the feel of a channel[br]that's and pushed up against.

0:08:25.300,0:08:26.100
That valley bottom,

0:08:26.100,0:08:31.000
our valley margin and valley[br]bottom margin, and it just

0:08:31.000,0:08:33.300
feels like it's[br]kicking everywhere it can.

0:08:33.300,0:08:33.600
There's a lot of active

0:08:33.600,0:08:34.900


0:08:34.900,0:08:36.600
bank erosion, lateral widening,

0:08:37.700,0:08:41.100
little[br]hints in a few of these bends, tendencies

0:08:41.100,0:08:44.300
to build mid-channel bars and islands.

0:08:45.000,0:08:46.800
but just not.

0:08:46.800,0:08:49.000
Multi-Threaded, yet.

0:08:49.000,0:08:49.400
Right.

0:08:49.400,0:08:52.700
It's,[br]so I think it's it's laterally active

0:08:53.000,0:08:56.000
is the right call.

0:08:58.100,0:08:59.300
So remember,

0:08:59.300,0:09:02.700
we said the answer, you know, is recovery[br]potential to

0:09:02.700,0:09:04.300
this question of, how much is in play

0:09:04.300,0:09:05.800
for restoration?

0:09:05.800,0:09:08.500
We're going to map. That with pink okay,

0:09:08.500,0:09:11.000
So recall, we have this valley

0:09:11.000,0:09:12.500
bottom land use.

0:09:12.500,0:09:16.400
And notice how what we mapped[br]is not a million miles off.

0:09:16.400,0:09:17.000
What I was just.

0:09:17.000,0:09:20.000
Showing you for

0:09:20.000,0:09:22.500
The inactive versus active right.

0:09:22.500,0:09:25.000
These are reasonably close.

0:09:25.000,0:09:26.900
Not bad considering we're doing it off of.

0:09:26.900,0:09:29.500
A pretty coarse resolution.

0:09:29.500,0:09:32.500
Well, we asked pops.

0:09:33.000,0:09:34.600
About recovery potential.

0:09:34.600,0:09:37.500
Okay, so remember, recovery potential

0:09:37.500,0:09:40.400
is, the valley bottom,

0:09:41.600,0:09:44.600
minus what

0:09:44.700,0:09:48.500
the landowner[br]or the land manager is willing to accept.

0:09:50.000,0:09:51.300
This is an interesting

0:09:51.300,0:09:52.900
exercise with good old pops.

0:09:52.900,0:09:54.600
By the way,[br]there is no such thing as pops.

0:09:54.600,0:09:57.100
I just made this guy up.

0:09:57.100,0:09:59.200
Anyway,

0:09:59.200,0:10:00.600
well,

0:10:00.600,0:10:01.200
coming into this,

0:10:01.200,0:10:04.200
the yellow area with 50%

0:10:04.700,0:10:06.500
that

0:10:06.500,0:10:08.300
qualifies as.

0:10:08.300,0:10:12.300
Active, 50% qualifies as inactive.

0:10:12.300,0:10:14.200
Okay, so the active is the active.

0:10:14.200,0:10:16.300
Floodplain and active channel.

0:10:16.300,0:10:18.300
Notice where pops put the pink line.

0:10:18.300,0:10:19.900
Okay. Tracks right here.

0:10:19.900,0:10:21.600
Pretty good. Pretty good.

0:10:21.600,0:10:23.000
Then there's this.

0:10:23.000,0:10:26.000
These real straight lines. Why?

0:10:26.100,0:10:28.900
Well, that's where his fences are.

0:10:28.900,0:10:32.600
Notice the fence goes right[br]across this active, meander bend

0:10:32.600,0:10:34.700
that's, laterally eroded

0:10:34.700,0:10:36.000
into the fence, It's gone.

0:10:36.000,0:10:38.800
There's another spot. Here[br]where the road or a little trail.

0:10:38.800,0:10:40.200
Has gone.

0:10:40.200,0:10:43.400
So in this.

0:10:43.400,0:10:45.400
Space right here.

0:10:45.400,0:10:47.700
Pops isn't really admitting that

0:10:47.700,0:10:50.500
it's active,[br]doesn't really see it as that.

0:10:50.500,0:10:52.400
And that kind of makes sense.

0:10:52.400,0:10:54.800
He doesn't have his cows[br]out here in the winter.

0:10:54.800,0:10:56.000
And his cows,

0:10:57.200,0:10:58.000
use this

0:10:58.000,0:11:00.400
in, you know, the spring and this

0:11:00.400,0:11:02.400
summer pasture.

0:11:02.400,0:11:04.400
He's actually pushing them up[br]to higher ground in the summer.

0:11:04.400,0:11:05.600
So it's really kind of the

0:11:05.600,0:11:09.700
spring and the fall, and then[br]the cows are taking somewhere else.

0:11:09.700,0:11:12.100
I'm making that up, too.

0:11:12.100,0:11:14.900
But this is a

0:11:14.900,0:11:16.000
interesting sort.

0:11:16.000,0:11:18.700
Of gap, because, you know what

0:11:18.700,0:11:21.000
It's what he's saying is that you.[br]Could have 35%.

0:11:21.000,0:11:21.400


0:11:21.400,0:11:24.300
of this for the river to,[br]you know, do better with.

0:11:24.300,0:11:27.000
So the uplift if we use this indicator,

0:11:27.000,0:11:28.500
or we we were to use

0:11:28.500,0:11:30.700
proportion active as an indicator

0:11:30.700,0:11:33.700
of overall health, is actually

0:11:34.000,0:11:35.100
actually no uplift, right?

0:11:35.100,0:11:37.200


0:11:37.200,0:11:40.200
So what do we do in a situation like that?

0:11:40.600,0:11:44.200
Well, one conclusion is[br]it's the reason you're funding.

0:11:44.200,0:11:45.600
It's the reason you're interested in this.

0:11:45.600,0:11:46.000
You really do.

0:11:46.000,0:11:48.500
Care about increasing the amount of valley[br]bottom that.

0:11:48.500,0:11:49.500
Could be active.

0:11:51.100,0:11:54.100
Maybe this isn't the right project.

0:11:54.300,0:11:54.800
I mean.

0:11:54.800,0:11:56.200
What he's come up with is logical.

0:11:56.200,0:11:57.900
It's following the fence line.

0:11:57.900,0:11:59.600
We can dig in a little deeper here.

0:11:59.600,0:12:01.800
So how do you feel, pops, about

0:12:01.800,0:12:04.100
channel change and floodplain reconnection?

0:12:04.100,0:12:05.300
Well, he's able to give the stream

0:12:05.300,0:12:07.600
some space to adjust[br]and push into the valley bottom,

0:12:07.600,0:12:10.600
but not all of it. Okay.

0:12:10.800,0:12:12.200
Yeah, there's beaver there.

0:12:12.200,0:12:14.200
He's got no problem with them.[br]They're kind of interesting.

0:12:14.200,0:12:15.900
So he's willing to allow that. Yeah.

0:12:15.900,0:12:17.300
And he's fine to. Deal.

0:12:17.300,0:12:20.100
With adaptive management. So. Okay.

0:12:20.100,0:12:21.200
I mean maybe.

0:12:21.200,0:12:24.200
Maybe there's still some room[br]to talk about this.

0:12:24.600,0:12:25.800
Maybe, a better.

0:12:25.800,0:12:28.500
Indicator might be,

0:12:28.500,0:12:32.200
instead of one relating to riverscape[br]principle one, streams need space.

0:12:32.200,0:12:34.800
Maybe for this project with Pops,

0:12:34.800,0:12:37.900
a better indicator[br]might be the proportion of

0:12:37.900,0:12:39.200
the valley bottom,

0:12:40.800,0:12:42.800
or the inundation extent at low flow.

0:12:42.800,0:12:44.000
Right.

0:12:44.000,0:12:47.000
So if we were to look at this, this reach,

0:12:47.300,0:12:49.900
you know, this is actually a high flow.

0:12:49.900,0:12:52.900
That we're looking at, sort of a bankful[br]flow.

0:12:53.500,0:12:56.000
And if. We were to look at it.

0:12:56.000,0:12:57.400
You. Could.

0:12:57.400,0:13:01.200
Have some more structural forcing in here

0:13:01.200,0:13:04.200
that would lead to, more connectivity. So.

0:13:05.000,0:13:06.300
You know, this idea of.

0:13:06.300,0:13:09.300
You know, pretty much that whole thing's[br]free flowing right now.

0:13:09.400,0:13:11.300
Could we get some structure in there.

0:13:11.300,0:13:14.200
that increases[br]some of the inundation extent

0:13:14.200,0:13:15.300
at low flows?

0:13:15.300,0:13:15.600
Yeah.

0:13:15.600,0:13:18.600
That's that[br]that could be something worth exploring.

0:13:18.700,0:13:22.400
So what could pops, reach of Coburn.

0:13:22.500,0:13:24.500
Coburn be?

0:13:24.500,0:13:25.200
Well.

0:13:25.200,0:13:26.700
Even if it's.

0:13:26.700,0:13:29.700
Just in this recovery potential[br]that he's willing to concede,

0:13:31.700,0:13:34.800
we might be able to get some more[br]inundation area, and we might be able.

0:13:34.800,0:13:37.600
To shift it to, this stage 8, sort of a

0:13:37.600,0:13:39.300
weekly and asked opposing system.

0:13:41.100,0:13:43.800
by the way, we call that wandering.

0:13:43.800,0:13:45.800
Maybe.

0:13:45.800,0:13:48.200
We could get a. Little bit[br]of a wandering system in those few.

0:13:48.200,0:13:49.400
Places where there's space

0:13:49.400,0:13:51.200
and, he's willing to allow it.

0:13:51.200,0:13:52.600
This sort of it's tendency.

0:13:52.600,0:13:55.000
Anyway,

0:13:55.000,0:13:58.000
and again,[br]recovery potential can change over time.

0:13:58.400,0:14:02.200
Well, pops has a hypothetical daughter.

0:14:03.100,0:14:06.100
And, pops[br]isn't going to be around forever.

0:14:07.100,0:14:10.000
And he likes his daughter a lot.

0:14:10.000,0:14:11.700
this daughter,

0:14:11.700,0:14:14.300
You know, just loves the river.[br]She grew up here.

0:14:14.300,0:14:15.700
loves the ranch,

0:14:15.700,0:14:18.500
And, yes, I'm making all this up.

0:14:18.500,0:14:21.500
And, she saw the the map.

0:14:21.700,0:14:23.700
And she kind of got upset with pops.

0:14:23.700,0:14:26.400
And so, What she said is,

0:14:26.400,0:14:28.200
oh, come on. Really?

0:14:28.200,0:14:29.950
I mean, we're just putting the cows out,

0:14:29.950,0:14:31.700
and, you know, whether or not it's us

0:14:31.800,0:14:34.400
irrigating the pasture or,[br]Whether or not it's,

0:14:34.400,0:14:36.700
you know, the river spreading.

0:14:36.700,0:14:38.500
Out and doing this stuff,[br]the cows can get in there.

0:14:38.500,0:14:39.100
They can use.

0:14:39.100,0:14:42.000
That for the little bit that we use. It[br]in the spring, in the summer,

0:14:42.000,0:14:44.000
but we do have this irrigation canal

0:14:45.000,0:14:46.000
right along here.

0:14:46.000,0:14:47.600
Okay.

0:14:47.600,0:14:53.100
And what she suggested is, yeah.

0:14:53.100,0:14:55.700
Let's, let's just go right off[br]the irrigation canal.

0:14:55.700,0:14:56.800
This is. Gravity fed.

0:14:56.800,0:14:59.200
So it wouldn't be a very easy thing[br]to move.

0:14:59.200,0:15:01.100
It'd be expensive, etc..

0:15:01.100,0:15:03.200
They want to keep that operational.

0:15:03.200,0:15:06.200
And so, this is her recurring potential.

0:15:06.200,0:15:07.800
The same as pops up here.

0:15:07.800,0:15:10.200
But then she's conceding,

0:15:10.200,0:15:14.200
not just, I mean, pops is line[br]was way back down here, right?

0:15:14.500,0:15:16.500
So she's. She's conceding not.

0:15:16.500,0:15:17.700
Just that gap between that

0:15:17.700,0:15:20.900
and the inactive floodplain boundary,

0:15:20.900,0:15:24.200
but saying, hey,[br]you could go all the way up to the canal.

0:15:24.200,0:15:27.300
And then, you know, once you get past[br]the barn, hey

0:15:27.300,0:15:29.100
and there's these few little beaver[br]dams here

0:15:29.100,0:15:31.100
and all the way down[br]onto the fan of this thing.

0:15:31.100,0:15:32.800
I mean, this could.[br]Really just spread out.

0:15:34.400,0:15:35.400
So by contrast, you know,

0:15:35.400,0:15:39.700
she's got 63 acres of recovery potential,

0:15:39.700,0:15:42.000
76% of the valley bottom,

0:15:42.000,0:15:43.700


0:15:43.700,0:15:44.950
that, you know, that could

0:15:44.950,0:15:46.200
could come back

0:15:46.200,0:15:47.800


0:15:47.800,0:15:52.000
So. The uplift potential is 22 acres[br]or 53%.

0:15:52.600,0:15:55.200
So. That's pretty that's pretty. Exciting.

0:15:55.200,0:15:56.600
And so.

0:15:56.600,0:15:59.050
You know, pops, pops may,

0:15:59.050,0:16:01.500
you know, Carol is the future,

0:16:01.500,0:16:03.600
so he let's see,

0:16:03.600,0:16:05.500
he lets her run the show.

0:16:05.500,0:16:08.300
So what could Carol's reach of Coburn be?

0:16:08.300,0:16:10.600
Well, up at the top there?

0:16:10.600,0:16:11.700
Right in here.

0:16:11.700,0:16:12.600
Maybe stage eight.

0:16:12.600,0:16:15.600
Still right.

0:16:15.900,0:16:19.200
However, towards the bottom, right,

0:16:20.100,0:16:21.150
where we could spread out,

0:16:21.150,0:16:22.200
get across this whole thing,

0:16:22.200,0:16:25.000
really spread out into this fan,[br]you know, maybe.

0:16:25.000,0:16:27.500
Stage zero effectively.

0:16:27.500,0:16:28.800
Eventually.

0:16:28.800,0:16:32.100
So, this is just

0:16:32.100,0:16:34.500
reinforcement,[br]of what we did in planning.

0:16:34.500,0:16:36.400
Right? This is so fundamental.

0:16:36.400,0:16:38.000
Because this sets.

0:16:38.000,0:16:40.200
The boundary conditions for your design.

0:16:40.200,0:16:41.000
This sets,

0:16:41.000,0:16:42.900
you know, how I'm going to approach this.

0:16:42.900,0:16:45.000
What's the target I'm shooting for?

0:16:45.000,0:16:48.500
Not necessarily that you're going[br]to get there in your first design,

0:16:49.500,0:16:50.600
but It's,

0:16:50.600,0:16:53.600
it's it's a really, really helpful way[br]to queue you up,

0:16:54.100,0:16:55.300
successfully.

0:16:55.300,0:16:59.800
So in conclusion, never start a design

0:16:59.800,0:17:01.600
without that critical context from planning.

0:17:01.600,0:17:03.350
The design opportunity i

0:17:03.350,0:17:04.225
s defined by that gap

0:17:04.225,0:17:05.100
between condition recovery potential,

0:17:05.100,0:17:08.500
and that's going to walk you through,

0:17:09.100,0:17:11.900
the design process,[br]focusing at the complex.

0:17:11.900,0:17:12.700
Scale.

0:17:12.700,0:17:13.600
And inheriting

0:17:13.600,0:17:16.200
these sorts of, objectives,

0:17:16.200,0:17:18.200
design objectives.

0:17:18.200,0:17:21.200
Out of what this planning process,[br]reveals.

0:17:21.800,0:17:22.500
Thank you very much.
