Importance of Stream Crossing Projects
Detailed Description
A collage of relevant keywords and photographs about stream crossing projects. Important components of stream crossing projects include flood flows, aquatic organism passage, stream crossing standards, and the hydraulic modeling tool. The photograph on the left shows a drop at the outflow of a culvert that would impede aquatic organism passage. The photograph on the right shows shallow water flowing through a culvert that could impede aquatic organism passage.
