The inventory was sponsored by the Yellowstone River Conservation Districts Council and partner agencies. The data are a combination of an inventory done in Park County in 1999 and an inventory that was done for the remaining downstream extent of the river in 2001. The data were modified in 2014 to remove records of items that were outside the scope of the study. The downstream inventory was conducted in October 2001 using a Rapid Aerial Assessment (RAA) technique. Features were mapped using a helicopter and crew equipped with GPS devices. Subsequent ground-truthing (via jet boat) was conducted for purposes of locating additional structures not visible from the air and structure condition assessment. Features identified and mapped during the RAA include: - Existing stream stabilization structures (riprap, jetties, dikes, flow deflectors, etc.) - In-channel structures (irrigation diversions, head gates, pump sites) - Stream crossings (bridges, power lines) - Irrigation return flow points - Accelerated bank erosion - Significant natural sediment sources (valley wall sloughing) - Municipal Structures (water intake structures, lagoon discharge points) - Floodplain Features (dikes, elevated ditches, elevated roads) - limited mapping The Park County inventory was part of an Historic Channel Modification Inventory for the years 1954, 1973 and 1999 to support the cumulative effects investigation sponsored by the Governor's Upper Yellowstone River Task Force. Starting with a physical features inventory conducted in April, 1998 by the USDA NRCS and Montana DEQ, 1999 aerial photos of the channel from Gardiner to Springdale were viewed in stereo and a variety of adjustments were made to features identifiable as barbs or jetties, riprap, and dikes: some features were reclassified; spatial extent of features were reduced or extended as appropriate, and new features were added. Other features identified in the original inventory (photo points, irrigation diversions, etc.) were deleted. Additional information used to supplement interpretation of the 1999 photos included field notes and mapping done in August and September 2000 and 2001, and topographic mapping done in support of the project. 2001 ground condition -110.91 -103.96 47.93 44.99 ISO 19115 Topic Category inlandWaters environment structure Lower Yellowstone River Montana North Dakota Park County Sweet Grass County Stillwater County Yellowstone County Treasure County Rosebud County Custer County Prairie County Dawson County Richland County McKenzie County This is public information and may be used by organizations, agencies, units of government, or others based on needs; however they are responsible for the appropriate application.

Park County Inventory: Starting with a physical features inventory conducted in April, 1998 by the USDA NRCS and Montana DEQ, 1999 aerial photos of the channel from Gardiner to Springdale were viewed in stereo and a variety of adjustments were made to features identifiable as barbs or jetties, riprap, and dikes: some features were reclassified; spatial extent of features were reduced or extended as appropriate, and new features were added by MT DNRC. Other features identified in the original inventory (photo points, irrigation diversions, etc.) were deleted. Additional information used to supplement interpretation of the 1999 photos included field notes and mapping done in August and September 2000 and 2001, and topographic mapping done in support of the project. 2002 Park County Inventory: Continuing with the layers from the previous Process Description, some point features were moved to better match the photos available for the area. Some point features were changed to line features so that this data could be used with the rest of the Yellowstone River data. Note that a point Displaced Car Body is different than a line Car Body. 200405 Several line files were joined together along with some features that had been points and converted to lines. These features were riprap (now Rock RipRap), dikes (now Floodplain Dike/Levee), barb (converted from points to lines and now Flow Deflectors), failed bank riprap (converted from points to lines and now Rock RipRap), and bedrock sill (converted from points to lines and now Bedrock Outcrop). These changes were made so that this data could be used with the rest of the Yellowstone River data. 2005 Lower River Inventory: Correct GPS coordinates to correspond with features visible on color infrared aerial photography. 2005 Warren Kellogg USDA-NRCS Watershed Specialist (406) 444-4490 (406) 444-6721 wkellogg@mt.gov Remove records that were outside the scope of the study. 2014 String 1544 Entity Point 1498 State Plane Coordinate System 2500 45.000000 49.000000 -109.500000 44.250000 600000.000000 0.000000 meters North American Datum of 1983 Geodetic Reference System 80 6378137.000000 298.257222 Point feature attributes OBJECTID Database sequence number Shape Feature geometry IN_CHANNEL In Channel feature type (blank) Not an In Channel feature Boat Ramp - Concrete Boat Ramp - Dirt Boat Ramp - Gravel Foundation House Headgate Industrial Intake Irr_Pump_Portable Irrigation Diversion Irrigation Headgate Irrigation Pump - Permanent Irrigation Pump - Portable Irrigation Pump- Portable Municipal Intake OTHER_CONT Other Feature Types (blank) Not an Other feature Irrigation Return Flow FEATURECLA General feature class Discharge Points River Crossing River Structures FEATURETYPE Specific Feature Type Agriculture Boat Ramp - Concrete Boat Ramp - Dirt Boat Ramp - Gravel Bridge Dump Site Dump Sites Flow Deflector Foundation House Headgate Industrial Intake Industry Irr_Pump_Portable Irrigation Diversion Irrigation Headgate Irrigation Pump - Permanent Irrigation Pump - Portable Irrigation Pump- Portable Irrigation Return Flow Municipal Municipal Intake Pipelines Powerlines Railroad Trestle CATEGORY Intermediate feature type Discharge Points Headgate Intake Irrigation Pump MAJOR_DIV Name of canal associated with this major diversion structure MINOR_DIV Name of canal associated with this manor diversion structure CH_OBSTRCT Description of how diversion structure obstructs the channel COMMENT Additional descriptive text Reach_ID Cumulative Effects Analysis geomorphic river reach identifier Line feature attributes OBJECTID Database sequence number Shape Feature geometry BANK Indicates whether feature is on the left or right bank of the stream LINK Link to functional evaluation report and photograph The reports are no longer available.
