• Darby-Cobbs Watershed
  The Darby-Cobbs Watershed Sediment Assessment has two objectives. The first objective is to perform a watershed-scale assessment to develop a map of potential sediment imbalances and identify effective design or remediation needs. The second objective of the study is to use this information to develop a framework for the restoration of urban watersheds. This framework will be applicable nationwide because watersheds plagued by urban sprawl, degraded habitat, recurrent flooding, and several stakeholders with conflicting interests are not unique to the Darby-Cobbs watershed or the Philadelphia District. Although many of the problems in urban watersheds are a result of imbalances in the sediment equilibrium, sediment transport is rarely assessed on a watershed scale. This demonstration project provides an opportunity for the Corps to apply unbiased technical expertise to practical issues. The products will improve the planning and design of ongoing and future projects and will benefit the Corps and many other agencies and stakeholders.
