The EFH-2 software implements the procedures described in the NEH 650 - Engineering Field Handbook Chapter 2 (EFH-2) for estimating runoff and peak discharge. Required information includes watershed characteristics (drainage area, runoff curve number, watershed length, watershed slope) and rainfall amount and rainfall distribution. The link below will take you to the NRCS Tech Tools page. Find and download the latest version of EFH-2.
Time: 21:52; This webinar is a recorded PowerPoint showing the NRCS Engineering Tools-Watershed Tools and other Tools in ArcMap. The first ~19 minutes covers the steps to delineate a watershed and determine a composite RCN. At 19:39, other useful tools in the Toolboxes are explained.
Time: 3:32; This video is a quick demonstration of where to find, download, and how to install the NRCS-Engineering Tools toolbox into ArcMap. The Tools version shown is 1.1.14
Time: 15:55, Suggested viewing: 10:20; The NRCS Oklahoma State Engineer demonstrates pipe hydraulics in a lab setting. He shows several types of inlets and their effects on pipe flow efficiency.
Time will vary (8 modules, 178 slides); This training focuses on procedures, tools and processes used by conservation planners to deliver conservation technical assistance on forestland and to integrate forest technology on other land uses.
