Crew are out ditching today, ensuring future rainfall will flow as it should along our #BCHwys. Driveway culverts are the homeowner's responsibility to keep clear, protecting roads & properties from possible damage due to flooding.

While roadside ditches and #culverts are usually the responsibility of the landowner, when #watercourses are culverted beneath the #highway, the #HighwaysAuthority must:
· Repair any collapses
· Remove blockages
· Ensure the watercourse remains free-flowing 🌊
#FloodAware #FloodRisk
To help manage #surfacewater on roads, highway #drainage assets can include roadside #gullies, underground pipes and #culverts, pumping stations, #soakaways, ditches, and #SustainableDrainageSystems (#SuDS) such as #swales. 🌧️

Did you know it is the homeowners' responsibility to make sure your driveway culvert is functioning properly? Clearing debris from the inlet & outlet will help to protect roads & properties from possible damage due to flooding.

Love story from @seattlebryn.bsky.social about how NOT-so-humble culverts key to saving #salmon habitat + elk, deer, bears, bobcats, etc. and how indigenous leaders are fighting to improve culverts.

Homeowners are responsible to clear debris from the inlet & outlet of driveway apron culverts. This will help to protect properties & roads from flood damage due to blockages. Rainy season is not here yet - it's time for some preventive maintenance!

Construction on the PCH involves drainage improvements and a fish passage project to protect endangered steelhead trout populations. The work aims to replace damaged culverts with bridges, addressing issues caused by heavy rains and landslides. The… #Bridges #California #culverts #Infrastructure
An excavator removing an obstruction from a waterway.
A large excavator and dump truck parked on top of a newly constructed culvert, channeling a stream with improved flow controlled primarily by a restored culvert slope, surface roughness, and tailwater elevation.

A large excavator in the process of notching a dam, a slow method in which an impoundment is drained through notches cut into the dam. New notches are cut in so the water drains out of the reservoir at a consistent flow. The sediment trapped behind the dam flows downstream in a fixed rate that allows the ecosystem to adjust to the changes.
A few more pics reflecting our #ecological #restoration mission, which I hope can be replicated (at appropriate sites!) over the coming years across Southern Appalachia’s many watersheds. #damremoval #culverts
More #culverts + bats: this time we found a roost of Pomona roundleaf bats (Hipposideros pomona), according to their echolocation. It was a very bright/open culvert. Always interesting to see two different colorations at the same time. Stay unique, little bat! #phdlife #bats
