WEBVTT 00:00:00.600 --> 00:00:01.100 Hello. 00:00:01.100 --> 00:00:04.000 It's Joe Wheaton, and, we're going 00:00:04.000 --> 00:00:07.100 to start in on this design module. 00:00:07.100 --> 00:00:09.700 Just getting off on the right foot. 00:00:09.700 --> 00:00:11.450 And that is, 00:00:11.450 --> 00:00:13.200 taking out of the planning phase, 00:00:14.000 --> 00:00:15.450 what we learned, 00:00:15.450 --> 00:00:16.900 and leading the design with recovery potential 00:00:16.900 --> 00:00:19.900 from that. 00:00:20.900 --> 00:00:22.600 So we're here 00:00:22.600 --> 00:00:25.600 in module four talking about design. 00:00:26.000 --> 00:00:27.400 In the restoration process, 00:00:27.400 --> 00:00:29.000 we spent module three 00:00:29.000 --> 00:00:30.600 working through the planning. 00:00:30.800 --> 00:00:33.300 Okay, and it's easy 00:00:33.300 --> 00:00:36.100 To just kind of jump in and, like, you know. 00:00:36.100 --> 00:00:37.800 You know, we're eager. Let's just 00:00:37.800 --> 00:00:38.600 Let's get a design. 00:00:38.600 --> 00:00:41.600 Let's, let's make some structures. 00:00:42.400 --> 00:00:43.950 I'm just going to try and convince you of this, 00:00:43.950 --> 00:00:45.500 never to start a design without that. 00:00:45.500 --> 00:00:46.300 00:00:46.300 --> 00:00:49.300 Critical context from the planning phase. 00:00:49.800 --> 00:00:52.400 Well, what context explicitly 00:00:52.400 --> 00:00:55.400 are we talking about? 00:00:56.000 --> 00:00:58.200 Well, we're talking about 00:00:58.200 --> 00:00:59.700 getting the conditions 00:00:59.700 --> 00:01:01.200 and the recovery potential. 00:01:01.200 --> 00:01:03.400 And remember that in the design phase, 00:01:04.400 --> 00:01:06.900 our alternatives, our design opportunities 00:01:06.900 --> 00:01:08.650 is really defined by the gap 00:01:08.650 --> 00:01:10.400 between condition and recovery potential. 00:01:11.100 --> 00:01:13.200 And, you know, we've got to make 00:01:13.200 --> 00:01:15.300 this judgment call on how many treatments will. 00:01:15.300 --> 00:01:17.700 It take to get to that recovery. Potential. 00:01:17.700 --> 00:01:20.500 And then if you and once you get there, 00:01:20.500 --> 00:01:21.850 what's it going to take for it 00:01:21.850 --> 00:01:23.200 to become self-sustaining? 00:01:23.200 --> 00:01:25.500 Okay. 00:01:25.500 --> 00:01:28.000 Oh, that's interesting. 00:01:28.000 --> 00:01:31.000 not what I wanted. 00:01:34.900 --> 00:01:37.900 Okay. 00:01:40.300 --> 00:01:45.800 So coming right in, you know, reminding yourself. 00:01:45.800 --> 00:01:48.500 Riverscapes principles, reminding ourselves that streams. 00:01:48.500 --> 00:01:49.800 Need space. 00:01:49.800 --> 00:01:53.500 We're not going to start our design without the valley bottom mapped. 00:01:53.700 --> 00:01:56.700 Okay. 00:01:57.300 --> 00:01:58.700 It's always important to remind yourself 00:01:58.700 --> 00:02:02.800 that definition of a valley bottom and a riverscape valley bottom. 00:02:03.900 --> 00:02:06.200 Is the area, 00:02:06.200 --> 00:02:09.200 of the landscape that could plausibly flood, 00:02:09.900 --> 00:02:12.500 By the rivers and streams in the natural, 00:02:13.500 --> 00:02:15.600 contemporary flow regime? 00:02:15.600 --> 00:02:17.600 The riverscape is just those valley. 00:02:17.600 --> 00:02:20.600 Bottoms, throughout the entire drainage network. 00:02:20.800 --> 00:02:23.100 Okay. 00:02:23.100 --> 00:02:24.600 So this is, this is our. 00:02:24.600 --> 00:02:26.300 Our sort of mantra. 00:02:26.300 --> 00:02:29.600 So let's go back to what you guys did yesterday. 00:02:30.800 --> 00:02:36.100 In module three, you mapped the active channels, you mapped the fans. 00:02:36.100 --> 00:02:37.900 You did that to kind of back into what. 00:02:37.900 --> 00:02:39.300 The valley bottom was, right? 00:02:39.300 --> 00:02:41.000 The rest of the space. 00:02:41.000 --> 00:02:43.500 And so you. Mapped these, valley. 00:02:43.500 --> 00:02:45.800 Bottom margins, mapped those fans 00:02:45.800 --> 00:02:48.400 so, you knew what protruded out into the valley, 00:02:48.400 --> 00:02:49.800 and you mapped the channel. 00:02:49.800 --> 00:02:51.500 So you get the confining margin. 00:02:51.500 --> 00:02:54.500 Look at the position, on the valley floor. 00:02:55.500 --> 00:02:57.000 So the green area. 00:02:57.000 --> 00:02:58.500 Is roughly what you derived. Okay. 00:02:58.500 --> 00:03:00.800 That's your valley bottom area that could plausibly. 00:03:00.800 --> 00:03:03.300 Flood in the contemporary natural flow regime. 00:03:04.500 --> 00:03:05.900 Your design opportunity. 00:03:05.900 --> 00:03:06.700 As we said. 00:03:06.700 --> 00:03:09.600 Is defined by this gap between condition recovery potential. 00:03:09.600 --> 00:03:10.400 And so. 00:03:10.400 --> 00:03:13.400 What we talked about is. 00:03:13.500 --> 00:03:14.500 both Weber and I, 00:03:14.500 --> 00:03:17.500 talked about this is to get, 00:03:19.000 --> 00:03:22.700 At least one expression of condition, one indicator of condition. 00:03:23.000 --> 00:03:27.400 We're going to split the valley bottom that we have here in yellow into, 00:03:28.400 --> 00:03:31.800 these different, components, but they're actually tier 00:03:31.800 --> 00:03:34.800 one geomorphic units in the fluvial taxonomy. 00:03:35.400 --> 00:03:36.500 So basically active. 00:03:36.500 --> 00:03:39.500 Floodplain, active channel, inactive floodplain. 00:03:39.600 --> 00:03:42.600 Okay, so. 00:03:45.800 --> 00:03:47.600 we could do this for this whole thing. 00:03:47.600 --> 00:03:49.500 But, at this scale, it's. 00:03:49.500 --> 00:03:52.500 It's kind of hard to see, so 00:03:52.800 --> 00:03:54.100 We're going to zoom in. 00:03:54.100 --> 00:03:56.400 We can zoom in here, 00:03:56.400 --> 00:03:56.900 and we're going to. 00:03:56.900 --> 00:03:59.900 Take you to tops. 00:03:59.900 --> 00:04:01.000 Tops range. 00:04:01.000 --> 00:04:03.300 Okay. 00:04:03.300 --> 00:04:05.400 So just a reminder, we said 00:04:05.400 --> 00:04:09.300 condition can be expressed by mapping the inactive portion of floodplains. 00:04:09.300 --> 00:04:11.900 And we have this example here okay. 00:04:11.900 --> 00:04:16.800 And so, I've faked, hypothetical property. 00:04:16.800 --> 00:04:17.300 Boundaries. 00:04:17.300 --> 00:04:21.000 You know, it's kind of looking at, some fence lines and some other stuff. 00:04:21.000 --> 00:04:22.200 So there you go. 00:04:22.200 --> 00:04:23.500 There's pops ranch. 00:04:23.500 --> 00:04:26.300 Okay, here's pops house. 00:04:26.300 --> 00:04:27.700 There's this barn. 00:04:27.700 --> 00:04:31.300 It's got a nice corral down here, some outbuildings, etc.. 00:04:31.400 --> 00:04:31.900 Okay. 00:04:33.500 --> 00:04:35.700 And so what I've done is I've gone and. 00:04:35.700 --> 00:04:36.800 Just, you know, because. 00:04:36.800 --> 00:04:39.400 I've zoomed in, I can do a little nicer job. 00:04:39.400 --> 00:04:41.700 First thing I did was I mapped. 00:04:41.700 --> 00:04:43.800 The valley bottom. 00:04:43.800 --> 00:04:45.800 I stopped it right here, right at the property. 00:04:45.800 --> 00:04:47.400 Line. Okay. 00:04:47.400 --> 00:04:50.900 And it goes all along, and notice 00:04:50.900 --> 00:04:53.100 here how I don't have the valley bottom. 00:04:53.100 --> 00:04:55.700 Fall Creek mapped, but the valley bottom, just. 00:04:55.700 --> 00:04:57.000 The valley bottom of Coburn Creek, 00:04:57.000 --> 00:05:00.200 And so this part that comes out, I think some of you know what this. 00:05:00.200 --> 00:05:02.800 Is, it's really low. Angle. 00:05:02.800 --> 00:05:05.100 So it might be. A little deceiving. 00:05:05.100 --> 00:05:07.100 But this is the fan. 00:05:07.100 --> 00:05:09.400 It's the fan of Coburn Creek okay. 00:05:09.400 --> 00:05:13.100 Now it doesn't matter that this isn't really active fan right. 00:05:13.100 --> 00:05:16.200 Necessarily like active in the sense that this building could. 00:05:16.200 --> 00:05:16.500 Still. 00:05:16.500 --> 00:05:18.200 Be kind of flooding a little bit. 00:05:18.200 --> 00:05:20.800 But this is what we're dealing with. Okay. 00:05:22.200 --> 00:05:23.400 So this polygon 00:05:23.400 --> 00:05:26.800 is 146 acres 00:05:26.800 --> 00:05:29.800 and, if you want to go zoom around the map, you can, 00:05:31.400 --> 00:05:33.700 This is 82 acres. 00:05:33.700 --> 00:05:33.900 Okay. 00:05:33.900 --> 00:05:34.800 So this this link. 00:05:34.800 --> 00:05:36.800 Is going to take you to this map and these games that. 00:05:36.800 --> 00:05:37.900 I played. 00:05:37.900 --> 00:05:42.500 So 82 acres, Of Coburn Creek, Valley bottom. 00:05:42.500 --> 00:05:43.600 That's kind of what we're dealing with. 00:05:43.600 --> 00:05:47.000 That's going to be, our basis for. 00:05:47.000 --> 00:05:50.000 Normalization of everything that we report. 00:05:50.300 --> 00:05:53.200 Zoomed in here, you can see that there is an area that's. 00:05:53.200 --> 00:05:54.300 Grazed. 00:05:54.300 --> 00:05:57.000 There's also a bunch of little relic channels and stuff in here. 00:05:57.000 --> 00:05:58.700 Not a relic, but like high status. 00:05:58.700 --> 00:06:00.000 Channels, I should say. 00:06:00.000 --> 00:06:03.900 There's actually some beaver dams, on the floodplain here. 00:06:04.200 --> 00:06:07.400 Oddly, over here against the toe of this slope, too. 00:06:08.700 --> 00:06:11.700 And there's evidence of run out. 00:06:11.700 --> 00:06:13.900 If you zoom in, you will notice. That. 00:06:13.900 --> 00:06:15.800 There is a canal. 00:06:15.800 --> 00:06:17.700 And that canal comes along here. 00:06:18.600 --> 00:06:20.100 And I don't know if these are. 00:06:20.100 --> 00:06:22.600 Just. Trailing by. Cows or if this is. 00:06:22.600 --> 00:06:23.600 Just kind of getting this. 00:06:23.600 --> 00:06:24.700 Water over. To here. 00:06:24.700 --> 00:06:25.600 And they just. 00:06:25.600 --> 00:06:27.800 Irrigate, flood irrigate this meadow. 00:06:27.800 --> 00:06:30.000 But, that's. 00:06:30.000 --> 00:06:31.000 Some of the infrastructure. 00:06:31.000 --> 00:06:33.600 There's also a fence that comes along. 00:06:33.600 --> 00:06:37.100 You can basically make out the fence line all along there. 00:06:37.700 --> 00:06:40.700 All right. 00:06:40.700 --> 00:06:43.700 So, conditions, 00:06:44.600 --> 00:06:46.900 I mapped out the inactive. 00:06:46.900 --> 00:06:48.700 Part of. The floodplain. 00:06:48.700 --> 00:06:50.700 Just based off of objective. 00:06:50.700 --> 00:06:51.400 Evidence of what. 00:06:51.400 --> 00:06:54.400 It looked like. Was 00:06:54.400 --> 00:06:57.200 what was flooding. Now, 00:06:57.200 --> 00:07:00.600 use some vegetation indicators that use, what looked like. 00:07:00.600 --> 00:07:02.300 Evidence of flooding on this floodplain. 00:07:02.300 --> 00:07:05.300 You can see a little bit when you zoom in on this. 00:07:05.400 --> 00:07:07.800 Is this perfect? 00:07:07.800 --> 00:07:09.900 But I think it's reasonably defensible. 00:07:09.900 --> 00:07:11.000 What did I come up with? 00:07:11.000 --> 00:07:14.700 Well, I came up with when I mapped traced out the active channel in blue. 00:07:15.500 --> 00:07:16.800 That's about four acres. 00:07:16.800 --> 00:07:18.800 So it's about 5% of the valley bottom. 00:07:20.200 --> 00:07:22.300 I marked the inactive portion. 00:07:22.300 --> 00:07:23.100 That's 41. 00:07:23.100 --> 00:07:27.900 So, 41 plus four is 45. 00:07:27.900 --> 00:07:28.900 Subtract from 82. 00:07:28.900 --> 00:07:30.300 I get my 37 acres. 00:07:30.300 --> 00:07:31.100 So the. 00:07:31.100 --> 00:07:33.900 Proportion of the valley, that's. Active is 50. 00:07:33.900 --> 00:07:35.100 Percent and fits. 00:07:35.100 --> 00:07:37.200 It's kind of dead smack in the middle here. 00:07:37.200 --> 00:07:40.200 Right. And sort of a moderate condition. 00:07:40.200 --> 00:07:43.200 So remember we looked at this, right? 00:07:43.600 --> 00:07:46.600 So, you know, we're we're somewhere in, 00:07:46.600 --> 00:07:49.600 you know, something, along these lines, 00:07:50.600 --> 00:07:53.300 If we were to use the. 00:07:53.300 --> 00:07:53.700 More. 00:07:53.700 --> 00:07:56.700 Expanded, which I think is useful here. 00:07:57.700 --> 00:08:00.400 Stream evolution model, it's probably in this. 00:08:00.400 --> 00:08:02.800 Laterally active. 00:08:02.800 --> 00:08:03.700 Condition. Right. 00:08:03.700 --> 00:08:04.800 Archie Murphy conditions. 00:08:04.800 --> 00:08:07.800 It's laterally active. 00:08:07.800 --> 00:08:09.900 I say that, because the other. 00:08:09.900 --> 00:08:11.400 Candidate might be. 00:08:11.400 --> 00:08:14.100 Quasi equilibrium or stage. 00:08:14.100 --> 00:08:16.100 One sinuous single thread. 00:08:16.100 --> 00:08:18.200 If we go back. 00:08:18.200 --> 00:08:19.900 You know, there is this sinuous single. 00:08:19.900 --> 00:08:22.800 thread, but if you start zooming in, you know, this. 00:08:22.800 --> 00:08:25.300 does have the feel of a channel that's and pushed up against. 00:08:25.300 --> 00:08:26.100 That valley bottom, 00:08:26.100 --> 00:08:31.000 our valley margin and valley bottom margin, and it just 00:08:31.000 --> 00:08:33.300 feels like it's kicking everywhere it can. 00:08:33.300 --> 00:08:33.600 There's a lot of active 00:08:33.600 --> 00:08:34.900 00:08:34.900 --> 00:08:36.600 bank erosion, lateral widening, 00:08:37.700 --> 00:08:41.100 little hints in a few of these bends, tendencies 00:08:41.100 --> 00:08:44.300 to build mid-channel bars and islands. 00:08:45.000 --> 00:08:46.800 but just not. 00:08:46.800 --> 00:08:49.000 Multi-Threaded, yet. 00:08:49.000 --> 00:08:49.400 Right. 00:08:49.400 --> 00:08:52.700 It's, so I think it's it's laterally active 00:08:53.000 --> 00:08:56.000 is the right call. 00:08:58.100 --> 00:08:59.300 So remember, 00:08:59.300 --> 00:09:02.700 we said the answer, you know, is recovery potential to 00:09:02.700 --> 00:09:04.300 this question of, how much is in play 00:09:04.300 --> 00:09:05.800 for restoration? 00:09:05.800 --> 00:09:08.500 We're going to map. That with pink okay, 00:09:08.500 --> 00:09:11.000 So recall, we have this valley 00:09:11.000 --> 00:09:12.500 bottom land use. 00:09:12.500 --> 00:09:16.400 And notice how what we mapped is not a million miles off. 00:09:16.400 --> 00:09:17.000 What I was just. 00:09:17.000 --> 00:09:20.000 Showing you for 00:09:20.000 --> 00:09:22.500 The inactive versus active right. 00:09:22.500 --> 00:09:25.000 These are reasonably close. 00:09:25.000 --> 00:09:26.900 Not bad considering we're doing it off of. 00:09:26.900 --> 00:09:29.500 A pretty coarse resolution. 00:09:29.500 --> 00:09:32.500 Well, we asked pops. 00:09:33.000 --> 00:09:34.600 About recovery potential. 00:09:34.600 --> 00:09:37.500 Okay, so remember, recovery potential 00:09:37.500 --> 00:09:40.400 is, the valley bottom, 00:09:41.600 --> 00:09:44.600 minus what 00:09:44.700 --> 00:09:48.500 the landowner or the land manager is willing to accept. 00:09:50.000 --> 00:09:51.300 This is an interesting 00:09:51.300 --> 00:09:52.900 exercise with good old pops. 00:09:52.900 --> 00:09:54.600 By the way, there is no such thing as pops. 00:09:54.600 --> 00:09:57.100 I just made this guy up. 00:09:57.100 --> 00:09:59.200 Anyway, 00:09:59.200 --> 00:10:00.600 well, 00:10:00.600 --> 00:10:01.200 coming into this, 00:10:01.200 --> 00:10:04.200 the yellow area with 50% 00:10:04.700 --> 00:10:06.500 that 00:10:06.500 --> 00:10:08.300 qualifies as. 00:10:08.300 --> 00:10:12.300 Active, 50% qualifies as inactive. 00:10:12.300 --> 00:10:14.200 Okay, so the active is the active. 00:10:14.200 --> 00:10:16.300 Floodplain and active channel. 00:10:16.300 --> 00:10:18.300 Notice where pops put the pink line. 00:10:18.300 --> 00:10:19.900 Okay. Tracks right here. 00:10:19.900 --> 00:10:21.600 Pretty good. Pretty good. 00:10:21.600 --> 00:10:23.000 Then there's this. 00:10:23.000 --> 00:10:26.000 These real straight lines. Why? 00:10:26.100 --> 00:10:28.900 Well, that's where his fences are. 00:10:28.900 --> 00:10:32.600 Notice the fence goes right across this active, meander bend 00:10:32.600 --> 00:10:34.700 that's, laterally eroded 00:10:34.700 --> 00:10:36.000 into the fence, It's gone. 00:10:36.000 --> 00:10:38.800 There's another spot. Here where the road or a little trail. 00:10:38.800 --> 00:10:40.200 Has gone. 00:10:40.200 --> 00:10:43.400 So in this. 00:10:43.400 --> 00:10:45.400 Space right here. 00:10:45.400 --> 00:10:47.700 Pops isn't really admitting that 00:10:47.700 --> 00:10:50.500 it's active, doesn't really see it as that. 00:10:50.500 --> 00:10:52.400 And that kind of makes sense. 00:10:52.400 --> 00:10:54.800 He doesn't have his cows out here in the winter. 00:10:54.800 --> 00:10:56.000 And his cows, 00:10:57.200 --> 00:10:58.000 use this 00:10:58.000 --> 00:11:00.400 in, you know, the spring and this 00:11:00.400 --> 00:11:02.400 summer pasture. 00:11:02.400 --> 00:11:04.400 He's actually pushing them up to higher ground in the summer. 00:11:04.400 --> 00:11:05.600 So it's really kind of the 00:11:05.600 --> 00:11:09.700 spring and the fall, and then the cows are taking somewhere else. 00:11:09.700 --> 00:11:12.100 I'm making that up, too. 00:11:12.100 --> 00:11:14.900 But this is a 00:11:14.900 --> 00:11:16.000 interesting sort. 00:11:16.000 --> 00:11:18.700 Of gap, because, you know what 00:11:18.700 --> 00:11:21.000 It's what he's saying is that you. Could have 35%. 00:11:21.000 --> 00:11:21.400 00:11:21.400 --> 00:11:24.300 of this for the river to, you know, do better with. 00:11:24.300 --> 00:11:27.000 So the uplift if we use this indicator, 00:11:27.000 --> 00:11:28.500 or we we were to use 00:11:28.500 --> 00:11:30.700 proportion active as an indicator 00:11:30.700 --> 00:11:33.700 of overall health, is actually 00:11:34.000 --> 00:11:35.100 actually no uplift, right? 00:11:35.100 --> 00:11:37.200 00:11:37.200 --> 00:11:40.200 So what do we do in a situation like that? 00:11:40.600 --> 00:11:44.200 Well, one conclusion is it's the reason you're funding. 00:11:44.200 --> 00:11:45.600 It's the reason you're interested in this. 00:11:45.600 --> 00:11:46.000 You really do. 00:11:46.000 --> 00:11:48.500 Care about increasing the amount of valley bottom that. 00:11:48.500 --> 00:11:49.500 Could be active. 00:11:51.100 --> 00:11:54.100 Maybe this isn't the right project. 00:11:54.300 --> 00:11:54.800 I mean. 00:11:54.800 --> 00:11:56.200 What he's come up with is logical. 00:11:56.200 --> 00:11:57.900 It's following the fence line. 00:11:57.900 --> 00:11:59.600 We can dig in a little deeper here. 00:11:59.600 --> 00:12:01.800 So how do you feel, pops, about 00:12:01.800 --> 00:12:04.100 channel change and floodplain reconnection? 00:12:04.100 --> 00:12:05.300 Well, he's able to give the stream 00:12:05.300 --> 00:12:07.600 some space to adjust and push into the valley bottom, 00:12:07.600 --> 00:12:10.600 but not all of it. Okay. 00:12:10.800 --> 00:12:12.200 Yeah, there's beaver there. 00:12:12.200 --> 00:12:14.200 He's got no problem with them. They're kind of interesting. 00:12:14.200 --> 00:12:15.900 So he's willing to allow that. Yeah. 00:12:15.900 --> 00:12:17.300 And he's fine to. Deal. 00:12:17.300 --> 00:12:20.100 With adaptive management. So. Okay. 00:12:20.100 --> 00:12:21.200 I mean maybe. 00:12:21.200 --> 00:12:24.200 Maybe there's still some room to talk about this. 00:12:24.600 --> 00:12:25.800 Maybe, a better. 00:12:25.800 --> 00:12:28.500 Indicator might be, 00:12:28.500 --> 00:12:32.200 instead of one relating to riverscape principle one, streams need space. 00:12:32.200 --> 00:12:34.800 Maybe for this project with Pops, 00:12:34.800 --> 00:12:37.900 a better indicator might be the proportion of 00:12:37.900 --> 00:12:39.200 the valley bottom, 00:12:40.800 --> 00:12:42.800 or the inundation extent at low flow. 00:12:42.800 --> 00:12:44.000 Right. 00:12:44.000 --> 00:12:47.000 So if we were to look at this, this reach, 00:12:47.300 --> 00:12:49.900 you know, this is actually a high flow. 00:12:49.900 --> 00:12:52.900 That we're looking at, sort of a bankful flow. 00:12:53.500 --> 00:12:56.000 And if. We were to look at it. 00:12:56.000 --> 00:12:57.400 You. Could. 00:12:57.400 --> 00:13:01.200 Have some more structural forcing in here 00:13:01.200 --> 00:13:04.200 that would lead to, more connectivity. So. 00:13:05.000 --> 00:13:06.300 You know, this idea of. 00:13:06.300 --> 00:13:09.300 You know, pretty much that whole thing's free flowing right now. 00:13:09.400 --> 00:13:11.300 Could we get some structure in there. 00:13:11.300 --> 00:13:14.200 that increases some of the inundation extent 00:13:14.200 --> 00:13:15.300 at low flows? 00:13:15.300 --> 00:13:15.600 Yeah. 00:13:15.600 --> 00:13:18.600 That's that that could be something worth exploring. 00:13:18.700 --> 00:13:22.400 So what could pops, reach of Coburn. 00:13:22.500 --> 00:13:24.500 Coburn be? 00:13:24.500 --> 00:13:25.200 Well. 00:13:25.200 --> 00:13:26.700 Even if it's. 00:13:26.700 --> 00:13:29.700 Just in this recovery potential that he's willing to concede, 00:13:31.700 --> 00:13:34.800 we might be able to get some more inundation area, and we might be able. 00:13:34.800 --> 00:13:37.600 To shift it to, this stage 8, sort of a 00:13:37.600 --> 00:13:39.300 weekly and asked opposing system. 00:13:41.100 --> 00:13:43.800 by the way, we call that wandering. 00:13:43.800 --> 00:13:45.800 Maybe. 00:13:45.800 --> 00:13:48.200 We could get a. Little bit of a wandering system in those few. 00:13:48.200 --> 00:13:49.400 Places where there's space 00:13:49.400 --> 00:13:51.200 and, he's willing to allow it. 00:13:51.200 --> 00:13:52.600 This sort of it's tendency. 00:13:52.600 --> 00:13:55.000 Anyway, 00:13:55.000 --> 00:13:58.000 and again, recovery potential can change over time. 00:13:58.400 --> 00:14:02.200 Well, pops has a hypothetical daughter. 00:14:03.100 --> 00:14:06.100 And, pops isn't going to be around forever. 00:14:07.100 --> 00:14:10.000 And he likes his daughter a lot. 00:14:10.000 --> 00:14:11.700 this daughter, 00:14:11.700 --> 00:14:14.300 You know, just loves the river. She grew up here. 00:14:14.300 --> 00:14:15.700 loves the ranch, 00:14:15.700 --> 00:14:18.500 And, yes, I'm making all this up. 00:14:18.500 --> 00:14:21.500 And, she saw the the map. 00:14:21.700 --> 00:14:23.700 And she kind of got upset with pops. 00:14:23.700 --> 00:14:26.400 And so, What she said is, 00:14:26.400 --> 00:14:28.200 oh, come on. Really? 00:14:28.200 --> 00:14:29.950 I mean, we're just putting the cows out, 00:14:29.950 --> 00:14:31.700 and, you know, whether or not it's us 00:14:31.800 --> 00:14:34.400 irrigating the pasture or, Whether or not it's, 00:14:34.400 --> 00:14:36.700 you know, the river spreading. 00:14:36.700 --> 00:14:38.500 Out and doing this stuff, the cows can get in there. 00:14:38.500 --> 00:14:39.100 They can use. 00:14:39.100 --> 00:14:42.000 That for the little bit that we use. It in the spring, in the summer, 00:14:42.000 --> 00:14:44.000 but we do have this irrigation canal 00:14:45.000 --> 00:14:46.000 right along here. 00:14:46.000 --> 00:14:47.600 Okay. 00:14:47.600 --> 00:14:53.100 And what she suggested is, yeah. 00:14:53.100 --> 00:14:55.700 Let's, let's just go right off the irrigation canal. 00:14:55.700 --> 00:14:56.800 This is. Gravity fed. 00:14:56.800 --> 00:14:59.200 So it wouldn't be a very easy thing to move. 00:14:59.200 --> 00:15:01.100 It'd be expensive, etc.. 00:15:01.100 --> 00:15:03.200 They want to keep that operational. 00:15:03.200 --> 00:15:06.200 And so, this is her recurring potential. 00:15:06.200 --> 00:15:07.800 The same as pops up here. 00:15:07.800 --> 00:15:10.200 But then she's conceding, 00:15:10.200 --> 00:15:14.200 not just, I mean, pops is line was way back down here, right? 00:15:14.500 --> 00:15:16.500 So she's. She's conceding not. 00:15:16.500 --> 00:15:17.700 Just that gap between that 00:15:17.700 --> 00:15:20.900 and the inactive floodplain boundary, 00:15:20.900 --> 00:15:24.200 but saying, hey, you could go all the way up to the canal. 00:15:24.200 --> 00:15:27.300 And then, you know, once you get past the barn, hey 00:15:27.300 --> 00:15:29.100 and there's these few little beaver dams here 00:15:29.100 --> 00:15:31.100 and all the way down onto the fan of this thing. 00:15:31.100 --> 00:15:32.800 I mean, this could. Really just spread out. 00:15:34.400 --> 00:15:35.400 So by contrast, you know, 00:15:35.400 --> 00:15:39.700 she's got 63 acres of recovery potential, 00:15:39.700 --> 00:15:42.000 76% of the valley bottom, 00:15:42.000 --> 00:15:43.700 00:15:43.700 --> 00:15:44.950 that, you know, that could 00:15:44.950 --> 00:15:46.200 could come back 00:15:46.200 --> 00:15:47.800 00:15:47.800 --> 00:15:52.000 So. The uplift potential is 22 acres or 53%. 00:15:52.600 --> 00:15:55.200 So. That's pretty that's pretty. Exciting. 00:15:55.200 --> 00:15:56.600 And so. 00:15:56.600 --> 00:15:59.050 You know, pops, pops may, 00:15:59.050 --> 00:16:01.500 you know, Carol is the future, 00:16:01.500 --> 00:16:03.600 so he let's see, 00:16:03.600 --> 00:16:05.500 he lets her run the show. 00:16:05.500 --> 00:16:08.300 So what could Carol's reach of Coburn be? 00:16:08.300 --> 00:16:10.600 Well, up at the top there? 00:16:10.600 --> 00:16:11.700 Right in here. 00:16:11.700 --> 00:16:12.600 Maybe stage eight. 00:16:12.600 --> 00:16:15.600 Still right. 00:16:15.900 --> 00:16:19.200 However, towards the bottom, right, 00:16:20.100 --> 00:16:21.150 where we could spread out, 00:16:21.150 --> 00:16:22.200 get across this whole thing, 00:16:22.200 --> 00:16:25.000 really spread out into this fan, you know, maybe. 00:16:25.000 --> 00:16:27.500 Stage zero effectively. 00:16:27.500 --> 00:16:28.800 Eventually. 00:16:28.800 --> 00:16:32.100 So, this is just 00:16:32.100 --> 00:16:34.500 reinforcement, of what we did in planning. 00:16:34.500 --> 00:16:36.400 Right? This is so fundamental. 00:16:36.400 --> 00:16:38.000 Because this sets. 00:16:38.000 --> 00:16:40.200 The boundary conditions for your design. 00:16:40.200 --> 00:16:41.000 This sets, 00:16:41.000 --> 00:16:42.900 you know, how I'm going to approach this. 00:16:42.900 --> 00:16:45.000 What's the target I'm shooting for? 00:16:45.000 --> 00:16:48.500 Not necessarily that you're going to get there in your first design, 00:16:49.500 --> 00:16:50.600 but It's, 00:16:50.600 --> 00:16:53.600 it's it's a really, really helpful way to queue you up, 00:16:54.100 --> 00:16:55.300 successfully. 00:16:55.300 --> 00:16:59.800 So in conclusion, never start a design 00:16:59.800 --> 00:17:01.600 without that critical context from planning. 00:17:01.600 --> 00:17:03.350 The design opportunity i 00:17:03.350 --> 00:17:04.225 s defined by that gap 00:17:04.225 --> 00:17:05.100 between condition recovery potential, 00:17:05.100 --> 00:17:08.500 and that's going to walk you through, 00:17:09.100 --> 00:17:11.900 the design process, focusing at the complex. 00:17:11.900 --> 00:17:12.700 Scale. 00:17:12.700 --> 00:17:13.600 And inheriting 00:17:13.600 --> 00:17:16.200 these sorts of, objectives, 00:17:16.200 --> 00:17:18.200 design objectives. 00:17:18.200 --> 00:17:21.200 Out of what this planning process, reveals. 00:17:21.800 --> 00:17:22.500 Thank you very much.
