River channel changes and levee options for Fremont County

Engineering analysis compares widening the river channel via a ditch plan versus building a system of parallel levees. Scouring power grows with velocity, potentially increasing sediment transport by 44 percent in a new channel. Levee costs hinge on height and top width, with tradeoffs in maintenance and required upstream drainage work.

Proposed new channel could streamline Missouri river flow

A plan envisions a shortened 16 mile river channel from Riverton to the state line and a raised fall rate to 215 100 feet per mile. It proposes an 12 to 24 foot bottom to top width at the Anderson to Riverton section and 24 to 36 feet elsewhere, arguing the scheme would lower flood time and levee costs despite bend effects.

Drainage Schemes Consider Channel Shortening and Levees

Civil engineer Seru Dean outlines three drainage options for a river area. The first would remove the river’s bends to shorten the channel, the second would ditch adjacent lands to drain surface water, and the third blends both ideas with levees and a shorter river course. A county tax on benefitted lands funds the project, with an 80 000 acre area likely taxable.
