Добавлен 1 окт 2013
The Urban Drainage and Flood Control District was established by the Colorado legislature in 1969, for the purpose of assisting local governments in the Denver metropolitan area with multi-jurisdictional drainage and flood control problems. UDFCD covers an area of 1608 square miles and includes Denver, parts of the 6 surrounding counties, and all or parts of 33 incorporated cities and towns. The population within UDFCD is approximately 2.8 million people.

That was fascinating. Well presented too.
Excellent explanation. Thank you
Great presentation by David Skuodas about capital projects in the mile high flood district. Anyone involved with capital projects for drainage should watch this. The same principles apply to water/wastewater projects.
I miss living in Golden 😢 Me And mom would watch the kayaks and people walking along the river . GOLDEN IS A GREAT PLACE TO LIVE 😊
Hello everyone One, from Jamaica 🇯🇲🙏🙏
How do I use this tool if I have multiple watersheds?
Thanks alot
👍
It would help sell this concept to include the real safety and maintenance elements in the graphics. Like safety rails around green element water holding/infiltration areas. Thank you for making the efforts to be transparent in these processes!
You...ROCK! 😂
Damn 16 minute video on riprap, you did a good job and don’t know there was so much more info on this other than it’s just some rock.
You keep look me videos
Im more obsessed with riprap than maybe anyone in the world. Ive spent most of my adult life trying to protect my house from a large canadian river. Thanks for this
Very helpful thank you
please google beaver......thank you
This is probably the single most educational hydrology-and-hydraulics presentation I've ever seen.
Awww thanks!
How about you just fix it can I take a few years but you could do that but you don't because you want to sell your rip-rap instead of fixing it
This is also an effective Sustainable solution to restore thr river eco system.
☝️ *Promo sm*
fascinating, rocks are tight
Love this!
Thank you for teaching me about riprap, I never heard of it until searching for how to stop erosion in a small slope in my garden when it rains.
Thank u
This is super informative video
Been their.
Great informative video.
Interesting information, one question ...why is it called "riprap"?
Right?!
We're not sure but it's an interesting question!
Wasnt aware of this... greqt information in this video!
Fantastic work Dave!
Thanks!
Hi! Can a PDF/ PPTX of this presentation be made available? Thank you!
If you send an email to questions@mhfd.org with a link to the video and your question we can probably get this to you.
Did you happen to get a copy of this?
thank you
Excellent video quality and presentation! Thanks from California
Absolutely fantastic video for geotechs. Thank you for taking the time to spread this info. Using it on some projects in California right now.
They should use this material to repair the washed out roads in Yellowstone Park.
Wow this was helpful! Thank you for making this video
Excelent video!

Can you add a video for modeling a rain garden with 6" slotted drain and outlet weir?
ᑭᖇOᗰOᔕᗰ
Fuck rip rap
nice job
Thanks. Very informative. Any additional videos on how the different stones are seperated inside the quarry on a bigger scale?
Very helpful and super informative. Thank you
This could become one of the best low maintenance streams in this watershed.
Brandy Gulch?
well explained. Thank You.
It IS my backyard. Live a block away and love "the Woods". I have a similar video on YT of a snowy walk through the woods. With our tubing, kayaking, walking and bicycling, not to mention the wildlife, the So Platte corridor is priceless.
happy to watch your video, proud of being a riprap maker here in 🇵🇭🙌🏻
I love this. Really great overview of the connection between urbanizations, hydrology, sediment transport (effective discharge), and downstream geomorphic impacts. Obviously the hard part is how to manage runoff in a way that doesn't result in downstream impacts... Great ideas on how to approach this at the end. I'm wondering if MHFD can identify reaches that are expected to be more sensitive to hydromodification based on bed material and slope. Of course the vast majority of the piedmont will be comprised of fine, erodible material.
Another well-done video, thanks Derek Rapp!
