Willowmoor Floodplain Restoration Project – Dynamic Weir Analysis
This is a follow-up to a memo Reid Brockway sent to the Executive Committee dated March 8, 2019, concerning a key problem – extreme flooding of Lake Sammamish in peak inflow events – that the Willowmoor-sponsored Preliminary Dynamic Weir Analysis Technical Memorandum (DWA) did not adequately address.

WSSA Video Review of Lake Sammamish Flooding 2020

2020 Flooding Survey

March 8

This is to highlight what I believe to be the most pressing issue concerning the Sammamish River flood control and the Willowmoor project.  It is a problem with a solution, achievable with active flow control via a dynamic weir.

King County’s flood risk reduction and habitat restoration projects sometimes require the placement of large wood into rivers and streams. Large wood can slow down a river, create pools and hiding places for young salmon, and bolster levees or revetments that protect people and infrastructure from flood risks. If you would like to learn about King County projects that involve the placement of large wood, please join us for a conversation about our current projects.
