Summary

In 2009, the Kootenai Tribe of Idaho released and implemented the Kootenai River Habitat Restoration Master Plan. This plan aimed to restore, enhance, and maintain the Kootenai River habitat and landscape to support and sustain habitat conditions for aquatic species and animal populations. In support of these restoration efforts, the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Kootenai Tribe of Idaho, conducted high-resolution multibeam echosounder bathymetric surveys as a baseline bathymetric monitoring survey on the Kootenai River near Bonners Ferry, Idaho. Three channel patterns or reaches exist in the study area: braided, meander, and a transitional zone connecting the braided and meander reaches. Bathymetric data were collected [...]

Purpose

Baseline bathymetry data were collected in the Kootenai River extending from River Mile (RM) 186 (Troy, MT) downstream to the mouth of the Kootenai River (referred to as Kootenay River in Canada) at RM 76.5 (mouth of Kootenay River at Kootenay Lake). These bathymetry data generally include complete coverage for the braided, straight, and meander reaches of the Kootenai/Kootenay River and Deep Creek (Kootenai River tributary).
