SWAN LAKE / SWANSON RIVER ROAD

SUCKER CREEK AOP HYDRAULICS REPORT

To: Stacy Bluhm, WFLHD Project Manager

From: James Neighorn, P.E. and Vernon Bevan, WFLHD Hydraulics Engineer

Date: June 20, 2023

Project: Swan Lake / Swanson River Road – AK FWS Kenai 74525(1)

Background

The Kenai National Wildlife Refuge (NWR) is rehabilitating Swan Lake Road and Swanson River Road to improve access to public recreation along the corridors, increase transportation safety, and to mitigate damage to wildlife and aquatic organism passage. As part of the project the NWR is replacing a culvert located on Swan Lake Road where it crosses Sucker Creek, Kenai National Wildlife Refuge, Kenai

Peninsula Borough, Alaska. Western Federal Lands Highway Division (WFLHD) is designing the replacement structure. The Kenai NWR will maintain the new structure. Recommendations for the proposed aquatic organism passage (AOP) structure design are presented.

AOP Design Criteria

The proposed AOP structure has been designed following the requirements Culvert Design Guidelines for

Ecological Function (U.S. Fish and Wildlife 2021) and per Stream Simulation: An Ecological Approach to

Providing Passage for Aquatic Organisms at Road-Stream Crossings (USDA-Forest Service 2008). These documents provide simplified design methodologies intended to mimic natural stream processes within the culvert. Sediment transport, debris conveyance and streambed morphology within the culvert should replicate these processes as they occur in the natural channel upstream and downstream of the culvert.

Determination of the high and low fish passage design flows, water velocity, and water depth is not required for this method since the stream hydraulic characteristics within the culvert are intended to replicate the stream conditions upstream and downstream of the crossing. AOP culvert design utilizes streambed materials and sizes which occur in the natural channel, providing similar channel complexity, flow depth, flow velocities, and resting areas.

USFW Alaska Fish Passage Program (USFW/AFPP) Guidelines

The AOP design for the Sucker Creek outfall crossing is consistent with the 2021 U.S. Fish and Wildlife

(USFW) Service design guidelines. The 2021 document generally follows the U.S. Forest Service stream simulation approach with certain modifications. The basis for AOP design is the geomorphic analog method. The underlying philosophy of the geomorphic analog method is similar to the stream simulation approach. However, many of the design criteria are based on the 100-year flood event as opposed to a specifically selected design flood. The following USFW/AFPP requirements have been incorporated into the AOP design:

Flood and Debris Conveyance: Culvert capacity is designed to accommodate the 100-year recurrence flood without interfering with the functioning of the floodplain while providing adequate clearance above the flood stage for expected debris. The headwater depth to opening depth ratio should be less than 0.8.

Crossing Location: Crossing structure is placed within the pre-development natural channel alignment

Memo to: Stacy Bluhm, WFLHD Project Manager

June 2023 wherever possible.

Culvert Width: Must accommodate the design channel bankfull width plus additional width for construction of stable bank rocks along both sides of the channel inside the culvert. All culverts will meet design requirements for a 6-foot minimum diameter.

Channel Vertical Clearance: Clearance from bed to ceiling must be at least 4-feet to allow for ease of construction, maintenance, and debris removal. Where possible, clearance will be 5-feet or greater.

Channel Slope: Reconstructed streambed within the culvert approximates the average slope of the stream reference reach. The slope should not deviate by more than 25% from the natural stream slope of the reference reach.

Embedment: Bottoms of round culverts should be buried below the streambed thalweg a minimum of

40% of the pipe diameter. Box or pipe arch culverts should be buried a minimum of 20% of the culvert’s rise.

Maximum Length of Road Crossing: Length should be less than 150-feet.

Fill Materials: Fill materials are generally comprised of sediment similar in size composition to natural bed materials that form the natural stream channel above and below the road crossing. Larger material is added to assist grade retention and provide resting areas for migrating fish. A dense, well-graded mixture is specified, with washing in of fines between constructed lifts, to encourage the stream to flow on the surface.

Fill/substrate material for culverts without an adequate sediment supply, such as those situated below a lake or wetland, should be designed to resist the predicted critical shear forces of the 100-year flood.

Water Depth and Velocity: Bankfull water depths and velocities in the culvert must closely resemble those existing reference reach as specified in the 2021 USFW Service guidance document.

Sucker Creek AOP Culvert

United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) has determined that the Sucker Creek crossing requires an AOP structure (60°43'29.43"N, 150°40'41.76"W NAD1983). Federal Lands Highway Division conducted field reconnaissance of the crossing in 2019 and 2021.

The crossing is located on Sucker Creek, roughly 800-feet downstream of Sucker Lake and approximately

1-mile upstream from the confluence of Swan Creek (Figure 1). Sucker Creek crosses Swan Lake Road through two 42-inch diameter CMPs. The crossing is located just downstream from a series of beaver dams, with the nearest beaver dam roughly 30-feet upstream of the crossing (Photos 4 and 5). The upstream reach is heavily influenced by the presence of beaver dams; therefore, observations and measurements within the upstream reach do not reflect channel forming processes downstream of the crossing. The upstream reach, which stretches from Swan Lake Road to Sucker Lake, reflects the influence of beaver activity and does not exhibit typical stream channel processes or morphology. The estimated stream width is roughly 50-feet

(Photo 5). The observed channel was relatively straight, wide, deep, and slow moving. Lots of small to moderate sized woody debris was observed within the reach, likely supplied from the lake and adjacent channel banks and amplified by beaver activity (Photos 4 and 5).

Downstream of the crossing, the channel slope is roughly 1.0% and riffle-pool is the dominant bed form.

Bankfull width measurements in the downstream reach, were between 16 and 17-feet (Photo 8). Bankfull depths were measured between 1.0 to 2.3 feet. Bed material is mostly sand and cobble with some gravel and boulders (Photos 7 and 9). A streambed pebble count was performed at the channel riffle downstream of the crossing. The data was processed using FHWA Hydraulic Toolbox, version 4.2, to compute the resulting gradation: D100 10-inches, D85 3.5-inches, D50 1.6-inches, and D15 0.12-inches (Figure 3). The stream appears stable with riffle crest vertical controls, a low accessible floodplain, and well vegetated banks (Photo 8). The channel is unconfined, with a flood-prone width estimated at roughly 50-feet. Based on observed field conditions, the stream can likely carry a moderate amount of small sized woody debris.

Stream flow may be low when fish passage is needed.

The existing crossing is served by two 42-inch CMPs which are in fair condition (Photos 1 and 6). One of the existing pipes appears to be slightly elevated and is likely activated during higher flows (Photo 3 and

6). The other pipe is situated within the main channel and active during low and high flows (Photos 2 and

6). The roadway elevation provides adequate cover over the existing culvert. Excessive scour at the culvert outfall was not observed and both culverts appeared free of woody debris. The existing culverts are situated perpendicular to the roadway and well aligned with the stream thalweg.

Recommendations:

A larger pipe will be necessary to provide space for bankfull width, a natural channel bottom, and stable banks. The upstream complex of beaver dams will impact the amount and type of sediment supplied to the culvert. The designed streambed sediment will need to account for limited sediment supply by augmenting the streambed gradation with larger cobbles and boulders.

• Install a 72-foot long, structural plate pipe arch with a 19.5-foot span and a 12.5-foot rise.

• Place the culvert at a 0.84% slope to match channel slopes at the crossing by setting the inverts at elevation 178.5-feet upstream and at elevation 177.9-feet downstream (project datum).

• Embed the culvert a minimum of 3.75 feet and backfill the culvert interior with streambed material conserved during excavation of the culvert. If the conserved streambed material quantity is insufficient for backfilling the culvert, use material similar to the natural streambed material.

Streambed material will be augmented with Class D gradation cobbles specified in the attached

Special Contract Requirements (SCR) and Gradation Stability Calculations to provide a dynamically stable substrate.

• Allow clearance for debris passage and maintenance access by providing 8.75 feet of clearance from the crown of the culvert and the installed bed material and providing a headwater to depth of opening ratio (HW/D) of less than 0.8.

• Construct a channel with a bankfull width of 16 feet and a bankfull depth of 2 feet including a low flow channel and streambanks inside the culvert to provide resting opportunities for fish.

• Install 4 rock weirs spaced at 16-foot intervals to help maintain banks and channel shape.

• Install 4 round boulders, approximately 24-inches in diameter for inducing channel migration and providing low velocity fish resting areas.

• Install concrete collars to mitigate the influence of frost heaving at pipe ends.

• Install Class 3 riprap (FHWA FP-14), minimum 3 feet thick, at the inlet and outlet for controlling erosion near the culvert.

Construction

The Alaska Department of Fish and Wildlife instream work period is May 15 to July 15. Temporary flow deflectors placed for isolating the work area and diverting the stream flow must have a minimum height of

3-feet above the stream bottom and be stable assuming 5-feet per second parallel flow. Use plastic-lined channels or pipes for temporally conveying stream flow through the construction area. Protect the outfalls from erosion. Ensure fish can pass smoothly through the diversion. Temporary stream diversions in place must provide an equivalent capacity to a 3-foot diameter pipe or demonstrate a minimum flow capacity equal to the 2-year discharge (169-cfs). Before installing the flow deflectors, remove fish from the work area to the level and methods meeting the 2009 ADF&G and FHWA Fish Habitat MOU requirements.

Full construction area dewatering is expected up to the groundwater level for excavation and installing the culvert, streambed material, backfill, and riprap. Water pumped from work area must be discharged at an upland treatment area near the site.

Temporary access route adjacent to the road embankment is needed for installing flow barriers, removing the channel debris, and completing culvert inlet, interior, and outlet work.

Stream Impacts

The proposed fish passage culvert is expected to dramatically improve stream flow conveyance, sediment transport, and woody debris transport to a level comparable to reaches upstream and downstream of the culvert. A moderate amount of turbidity and sediment is expected to be released when the flow barriers are removed, and stream flow is introduced into the newly constructed culvert. The amount of turbidity and sediment will be reduced by removing the flow barriers gradually introducing the stream flow over an extended two to three-hour time.

Operation and Maintenance

Scour or aggradation of the streambed is also expected to occur to some extent, as would be expected for the natural stream. Monitoring at regular intervals, and ideally during flood events, will be especially important during the first few years to ensure that excessive debris accumulation, scour, or aggradation does not impair passage through the culvert. Increase the frequency of culvert inspections and debris removal for the first three years. Fish boulders placed within the culvert and stream channel should be inspected annually and after each extreme flood event to ensure effective backwater and bed retention.

Replace or reposition dislodged rock or boulders. Additional rock may need to be installed to correct erosion or channel degradation. Riprap placed at the culvert inlet and outlet should be inspected annually and after each extreme flood event. Replace or reposition dislodged stone.

Floodplain and Flood-rise Impacts

Flood limits and elevations have not been mapped by the National Flood Insurance Program for the site.

The proposed culverts will improve hydraulic conveyance and is not expected to negatively impact flooding at the site.

Hydrology

The USGS StreamStats (version 4) web-based application was used for delineating the watershed and calculating drainage area (15.5 sq. miles) and mean annual precipitation (17-inches). Since delineations made by StreamStats can include inaccuracies for smaller watersheds and flat areas, the delineated watershed was verified by comparing it to both USGS TOPO maps and Digital Terrain Maps produced by the Alaska Division of Geological and Geophysical Surveys. No significant deviations that would impact flow estimates were found.

Peak discharges were estimated with StreamStats using USGS regression equations from Magnitude and

Frequency at Gaged and Ungaged Sites on Streams in Alaska and Conterminous Basins in Canada (USGS

WRIR 2016-5024). The watershed is mostly comprised of forested land and surface water (Figure 2).

Dozens of lakes are located within the basin and their presence can influence the amount of runoff generated by the basin. Lakes can increase runoff by increasing the amount of impervious surface area, or conversely, lakes can act to attenuate flows. Hydraulic modeling of the channel and the existing culverts indicate that the flows derived from the USGS regression equations are likely reasonable estimates of the basin’s hydrology. A summary of peak discharges and their corresponding water depths at the culvert inlet are presented in Table 1.

Dominant flooding is from snow melt. Larger floods typically occur in April and May. Rain-on-snow flood events can occur in October through December. Lower flows typically occur from January to February and

July through September.

Culvert Hydraulics

Water surface profiles and culvert capacities were estimated using the FHWA Culvert Hydraulics Analysis

Program, HY-8, version 7.7 (results attached). Floods larger than the 2-year were analyzed assuming culvert slope of 0.83 percent and Manning’s Roughness coefficient of 0.035 for the channel bottom and 0.034 for the culvert sides and top.

The computed outlet tailwater depth of 2.0 feet for the 2-year discharge was compared with the bankfull channel design depth of 2.0 and found to be within the measured range of the 1.0 to 2.3 feet in the natural channel.

Hydraulic results are included in the attachments with headwater depths and ratios shown in Table 2.

(1) Grading of the cobbles will be by visual inspection of material before it is placed, and if directed by the CO, by placing material on a flat surface and sorting and measuring a sampling of the cobbles.

Note: Approximate size can be determined by taking the average dimension of the three axes of the rock; length, width, and thickness by use of the following calculation:

𝐿𝐿𝐿𝐿𝐿𝐿𝐿𝐿𝐿𝐿ℎ + 𝑊𝑊𝑊𝑊𝑊𝑊𝐿𝐿ℎ + 𝑇𝑇ℎ𝑊𝑊𝑖𝑖𝑖𝑖𝐿𝐿𝐿𝐿𝑖𝑖𝑖𝑖
