Summary

[edit]
Description This U-shaped bend in the Napa River, known as an oxbow, is the start of the Napa dry bypass. Once the surface elevation of the water rises above the 13-foot mark, it will overtop this bank and be diverted through a straight passage back to the Napa River. The dry bypass is the latest in a series of flood risk reduction projects the Corps of Engineers and Napa County Flood Control and Water Conservation District are partnering on to help prevent flooding in downtown Napa. A ribbon-cutting ceremony is scheduled for August 4, 2015, to celebrate the project's completion. (U.S. Army photo by Luke Burns/Released)
