Prioritization Criteria
What is Next?
Discussion & Comments
Central Valley Flood Protection Plan
Primary Goal of CVFPP: Improve Flood Risk Management
Implementation of
structural and nonstructural actions for protecting urban areas and lands of Sacramento and San Joaquin river basins, and the Delta
System‐wide investment
approach
Sustainable, integrated
flood management
Purpose of the RFMP
Build upon the CVFPP by describing regional flood management challenges and deficiencies, identifying solution strategies and projects, setting priorities, and developing a local financing plan for their implementation which leverages local, State, and federal funding
- pportunities.
Highlights of Draft RFMP
Flood Management Challenges and Constraints Flood Hazards in Feather River Region Solution Strategies and Management Actions Integration of Flood Management with Agriculture and
Wildlife
Structural and Operational Alternatives Formulation Residual Risk Management Alternatives Alternatives Evaluation, Comparison and Prioritization Financial Planning
Urban and Urbanizing
Achieving 200‐year flood protection
Small Communities
Achieving 100‐year flood protection
Rural Agricultural Areas
Improve existing flood protection
Flood System Sustainability
Improve the flexibility and sustainability of the system
RFMP Flood Protection Goals
Agricultural Sustainability
Support and strengthen the regional economy Nexus of habitat and agricultural practices Sustain agricultural uses of regional floodplain
Multiple Objectives
Environmental restoration Agricultural enhancement Improved water quality, water
supply, recreation, etc.
Statewide and Regional Projects
Describe opportunities to link regional projects to systemwide
goals and objectives

Solution Strategies and Management Actions
State Systemwide Investment Approach (SSIA) includes recommendations for improvements to structures and
- perations of:
Levees Channels and Bypass Systems Reservoirs Fisheries and wildlife habitat Operations and Maintenance
Levees:
Raise crown elevation Increase levee cross section and improve its geometry Provide stability berms buttress the levees Provide waterside berms and erosion protection on the water side Provide cutoff walls, seepage berms, or relief wells Reconstruct deficient levees in place or construct levee setbacks Provide off‐stream transitory storage Provide improved access and visibility to facilitate inspection and
flood fighting activities
Remove or improve levee penetrations Provide overflow protection Provide vegetation management including root barriers
Solution Strategies and Management Actions
CVFPP physical and operational elements applicable to Feather River region:
Forecast Coordinated Operations and Forecast Based
Operations (FCO and FBO)
New Bypass Construction and Existing Bypass
Expansion
Flood Structure Improvements Urban Improvements Small Communities Improvements Rural Agricultural Area Improvements Ecosystem Restoration
Solution Strategies and Management Actions
The agricultural and environmental heritage of the Feather River region should be preserved and enhanced through improved flood protection
Integration of Flood Protection, Agriculture & Environment
Maintaining agricultural operations ensures:
- Economic vitality of the region preserved and enhanced
- Limiting of dense residential development in flood‐prone
areas
- Environmental benefits of farming
- Access to resource stewardship and land management
know‐how of farmers
Integration of Flood Protection, Agriculture & Environment
Benefits of Ecosystem Enhancement in Feather River Region:
Increased floodplain
inundation compatible with agriculture
Increased potential for
channel migration
Increased extent of riparian
vegetation
Improved fish passage at State
Plan of Flood Control facilities (SPFC)
Integration of Flood Protection, Agriculture & Wildlife
Flood Protection Projects Benefit Agricultural & Environmental
- 200‐year flood protection
for region
- Flood risk reduction for
agricultural land
- Over 2,400 acres returned
to the floodway for environmental restoration and/or agricultural leaseback opportunities

1.
Create a master list of actions Collaborate to formulate prioritized list
- 2. Organize actions by sub‐basin
- 3. Subdivide actions into categories:
Levee improvements
Reservoir structural and operational improvements
Channel improvements
Residual risk improvements
