1 Culvert Prioritization Model: Aiding Communities in the Selection of Priority Restoration Projects Meeting #1 of the Technical Advisory Committee March 18,

3 Undersized Culverts! Culvert Sizes (~7,500 VT culverts) 6,000 5,000 69% Number of Culverts 4,000 3,000 2,000 21% 3 1, % 2% 3% < >125 Culvert Size (% of Bankfull Channel Width)
4 Project Goals 1. Create an easy to use Excel based tool for municipalities in prioritizing culvert replacements and stream crossing restorations. 2. The tool will be community driven with built in flexibility in weighing key environmental, engineering and road safety related factors in prioritizing road, stream crossing and culvert infrastructure upgrades prior to emergency repairs. 3. The aim is to get ahead of the storm and work with and train three municipalities in developing, field testing and implementing the tool The tool will be designed and available for all eleven municipalities located in the Piscataquog River Watershed.

Risk STR = An indicator of the structure condition from field observations combined with the approximate hydraulic capacity (TU/SNHPC) (see below). AOP = Aquatic organism passage (TU/SNHPC) plus fisheries prioritization data (NHFG). C = Criticality of the structure such as essential links, public safety routes, proximity to infrastructure, paving schedules, etc. (Town) R = Overall risk that is the intersection between vulnerability and criticality.
