[] into the Santa Clara River include drainage from Bouquet, Mint,

San Francisquito, Sand, Wiley, Wildwood, Placerita and other

smaller canyons. There are a few flood control channels lined in

[ the populated areas (Bouquet, Mint, Wiley and Placerita Canyons),

but for the most part the river is not channeled.
