  • At Point Warrior the River Is Divided Into Three Branches
    Cathlapotle Site Description - Excerpt from Archaeological Investigations at 45CL1 Cathlapotle (1991-1996) Cathlapotle is located on the Carty Unit of Ridgefield National Wildlife Refuge, in Clark County, Washington (Section 11, Township 4N, Range 1W). It sits on an abandoned levee on the east side of Lake River approximately 1.3 km upstream from the river’s confluence with the Columbia River. This landform, known as Brush Ridge, runs parallel to Lake River on one side and Long Meadow on the other. Brush Ridge is actually comprised of three parallel ridges with swales between. The site is located on the easternmost ridge, adjacent to Long Meadow. We call this Site Ridge. The site covers an area of 17,500 sq. meters (ca. 4 acres, 250 meters long and 70 meters wide.) Situated on the Columbia River floodplain in the Wapato Valley bottomlands, the site surface ranges from as low as 4.4 meters ASL to upwards of 7.4 meters ASL. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers estimates that prior to modern dam construction, the average annual flood crest would have been 16 feet (4.9meters) ASL. If this estimate is accurate, then much of the Wapato Valley, but not Cathlapotle, would have been subject to annual flooding (Hamilton 1993). The Wapato Valley floodplain averages 3.3 meters ASL. Consequently, the surrounding area of the site was an is frequently flooded (Abramowitz 1980). The flooding of February 1996 provided us with a “living geology” experiment in flooding at Cathlapotle. This “100-year flood” covered the site with seven to nine feet of water.

    Chapter 26 Cumulative Impacts The Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) regulations for implementing the National Environmental Policy Act require the assessment of cumulative Words in bold impacts in the decision-making process for proposed federal projects. and acronyms are defined in Cumulative impacts are defined as the impact on the environment which Chapter 32, results from the incremental impact of the action when added to other past, Glossary and present, and reasonably foreseeable future actions regardless of what agency Acronyms. (federal or non-federal) or person undertakes such other actions (40 CFR 1508.7). As stated in the CEQ handbook, "Considering Cumulative Effects under the National Environmental Policy Act" (CEQ 1997), cumulative impacts should be analyzed in terms of the specific resource, ecosystem, and human community being affected and should focus on effects that are truly meaningful. This chapter provides an analysis of potential cumulative impacts related to the Proposed Action, the I-5 project. The analysis was accomplished using the following four steps: Step 1 - Identify Potentially Affected Resources Resources were identified that potentially could be cumulatively affected by the I-5 project when combined with other actions (see Section 26.1, Affected Resources and Resource Boundaries). Step 2 - Establish Boundaries Spatial (i.e., location) and temporal (i.e., time) boundaries were established for the consideration of other potentially cumulative actions (see Section 26.1, Affected Resources and Resource Boundaries). Step 3 - Identify Potentially Cumulative Actions Other past, present, and reasonably foreseeable future actions were identified that have contributed, or could contribute, to cumulative impacts on the resources identified in Step 1 (see Section 26.2, Cumulative Actions).
