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 velocities are so low that large quantities of sediment shown to be carried by Green River past Greenriver , Utah , . are temporarily deposited in the river bed . ( Scien- Scien ) tific and other testimony ( shows show ) that such deposits occur primarily along the insides of bends and in ( -the the ) straight stretches between bends . The reason for this has already been described , based on studies by Hoyt , in Compl . Exhibit 75 , and by oral ( testi- testi ) . mony of Colonel Dent and others , and is a subject on which most students of river hydraulics agree . ( Testi- Testi ) mony offered by the State attempted to prove that ( with -Nvith Nvith ) frequent operation of boats a channel could be ( maintained -maintained maintained ) through these bars . Such a contention is contrary to scientific observations . Richardson states ( Abs . R . , vol . 2 , p . 937 ) it looked to him as if the entire bottom of Green River was moving out . . |
