WATER DIVERSION SYSTEM, METHOD AND APPARATUS
A water diversion system for a job site in a streambed comprises a cofferdam in the streambed upstream of the job site, at least one, preferably two sections of substantially rigid pipe embedded in the cofferdam, a valve or plug in each pipe section to open or close water flow through the pipe, and at least one, preferably two flexible tubes connected to the downstream ends of the pipe sections, respectively. The flexible tubes are configured to lie on the natural streambed and traverse the job site, substantially without grading or otherwise disturbing the natural streambed. An optional positioning and pull straps can be installed on the flexible tubes to assist with moving the tubes and securing the tube in place under water flows. Water diversion paths around and through the job site can alternated or changed by flipping the valves and/or moving the flexible tubes.
