Road Commission personnel are wise to become educated about the damage caused to hydrologic
ecosystems by storm water runoff, sedimentation, stream and road bank blow-outs, roadway undermining and collapse, all as a result of undersized
culvert design and installation.
![Page 4: Oceana County Road Commission Grant – Funded crossing replacements](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062801/568143a9550346895db030a1/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
During high-water events, a culvert acts like a rifle barrel and the water
moving through it becomes the bullet.
Because of this, engineers should be proactive in thinking about the system
as a whole, and go “bottomless” when designing road crossing
replacements.
![Page 5: Oceana County Road Commission Grant – Funded crossing replacements](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062801/568143a9550346895db030a1/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Streams and rivers are roads and highways for aquatic and non-
aquatic life.
“Bottomless” and “right-sized” crossings maintain connectivity, allowing fish and wildlife to move
freely and seek out resources necessary for survival.
