Bathymetric and Topographic Surveys at Lucky Peak Lake Intake Structures, Boise County, Idaho, 2023

In October 2023, the U.S. Geological Survey Idaho Water Science Center (IDWSC), in cooperation with Lucky Peak Power Plant Project (LPPPP), completed bathymetric and topographic surveys at two dam intake structures using multibeam bathymetry and boat-mounted Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR). Dam operators indicated a possibility that sediment aggradation was occurring near the intake structures that allow water to pass through the dam. The bathymetric and topographic data generally include complete coverage near the intake structures and banklines near Lucky Peak Dam.

2023年10月，美国地质调查局爱达荷州水文科学中心（U.S. Geological Survey Idaho Water Science Center, IDWSC）联合幸运峰发电厂项目（Lucky Peak Power Plant Project, LPPPP），利用多波束水深测量（multibeam bathymetry）与船载激光雷达（Light Detection and Ranging, LiDAR）技术，对两座大坝取水口结构完成了水深地形测量。大坝运维方指出，允许水体穿坝的取水口结构附近存在泥沙淤积的可能性。本次获取的水深与地形数据，基本完整覆盖了取水口结构周边区域以及幸运峰大坝附近的岸线。
