Setback Levees: Hydraulic, Ecologic and Economic Benefits Tony Melone, PhD, PE, CFM 2011 ASFPM National Conference

Presentation Overview  Levee setback concepts  Multi-disciplinary approach: going beyond flood benefits  Ecosystem services: putting $$ values to environmental enhancement  Residual risk: planning for extreme events.

180 th to 200 th Street Levee Setback Study

Soldiers Home Levee Setback Improvement Project New Setback Levee Floodplain Reconnected to River

Levee Setback Concepts

Channelized River Channel

Levee Setback Corridor

Ecosystem Services

Ecosystem Benefits - Wetlands Value = $36,000 per acre per year

Ecosystem Benefits

Floodplain Inundation – 14,500 cfs

Floodplain Inundation – 22,600 cfs

Flood Damage

Avoided Annual Damage

Closing Statement  Multi-disciplinary evaluation of levee options identifies the dollar value of benefits to a community:  Flood protection benefits – Avoided damage losses  Ecosystem service benefits
