May 16, 2012 Structural & Hydraulic Analysis of
Lower Columbia River Pile Dikes
(LCR Study)
FINDINGS
• Pile dikes are necessary and vital to the proper continuing
functioning of the LCR navigation system
• Without the pile dikes
– Substantial bank erosion would occur
– The navigation channel location (widths and depths) would become
destabilized.
• Pile dikes have created (and are currently protecting) over
6,100 acres of shallow water habitat
• Near-term maintenance is required to protect existing
shallow water habitat

(LCR Study)
SHALLOW WATER AREA CALCULATIONS APPROACH
• GIS tool to analyze all existing bathymetric data, and
utilizing composite overlays to develop depth contours
• Reasonable (probable) case assumptions to calculate
shallow water areas (>6,100 acres)
– Influence 2,500 feet downstream of pile dike
– Area elevations are below high water and above -18 feet NAVD88
– Area boundaries follow flow stream
• Conservative case assumptions to calculate shallow water
areas (1,700 acres)
– 2,500 feet downstream of pile dike
– Area elevations are below 0 feet and above -18 feet NAVD88
– Area boundaries follow flow stream

PILE DIKE ROLE
• The role of pile dikes for habitat enhancement or creation
is predominately physical:
– To reduce/control downstream energy (flow velocities) adequately
to protect the habitat type being enhanced or constructed

OPTIONAL HABITATS TO BE CREATED/ENHANCED
• Place dredged material (or upland materials) in the
protected (reduced energy) zone behind the pile dike to
improved habitat and complexity with:
– Submerged bench (island or mound)
– Nearshore slope
– Marsh
– Wetland mosaic
• Other - Place in protected (reduced energy zone) behind
the pile dike to improve complexity:
– Large woody debris (LWD)

SUMMARY
PILE DIKES ARE BENEFICIAL TO

shallow water habitat important to juvenile salmonids.
• Removal or loss of pile dikes would significantly reduce available

• Pile dikes are in substantial disrepair; maintenance is required to
maintain existing shallow water habitat areas in the LCR.
• Significant opportunity to create/improve juvenile salmonid habitat with
use of pile dikes.
