Photographs as ( follows folloi'vs folloivs ) show the nature of the exposed bed , ( Lars bars ) , and ( banks banIcs ) from which it can be seen that conditions can not be permanent : Exhibit 77 , photos .

Exhibit No . 10 , the plan and profile show that in this stretch the average slope is only , 1.17 feet to the mile . It is evident that at times the ( Tfelocities Trelocities ) are so low that large quantities of sediment ( shown sliown ) to be carried by Green River past Green River , Utah , are temporarily deposited in the river bed . ( Scien Scien- Scien ) tific and other testimony shows that such deposits occur primarily along the ( iiisides insides ) of bends and in the straight stretches between bends . The reason for this has already been described , based on studies by Hoyt , in ( Exhibit EY-hibit EYhibit ) 75 , and by oral testimony of Col . Dent and others , and is a subject on ( which ivhich ) most students of river hydraulics agree . Testimony offered by the State ( attempted attenipted ) to prove that with frequent operation of boats a channel could be maintained ( through thTOUgh ) these bars . Such a contention is contrary to scientific observations . Sawyer states ( Vol . 20 , page 3693 ) it looked to him as if the entire bottom of Green River was moving out . Additional testimony ( showing slioiving ) the shifting ( char- char ) acter of the bed of Green River is contained in the |
