INTRODUCTION
-
The Municipality of Tijuana
has among its current projects the rehabilitation of Arroyo Alamar, tributary of the Tijuana river.
-
The project will satisfy a host of urban-planning needs, such
as the preservation of riparian areas,
flood management, planned land use, recreation, landscaping, and
replenishment of groundwater.
-
The project encompasses the 10-km reach of Arroyo Alamar, located
between the bridge on the toll road to Tecate, and the channelized reach
near the confluence with the Tijuana river.
-
A hydrological study to determine design flood magnitudes
has been completed
in a FY2000 SCERP-funded project.
-
This study continues the hydrological study to its next logical step, i.e.,
the development of a hydroecological characterization aimed at determining flood levels that
are congruent with the proposed land uses.
