Here are some maps showing some completed structures along the Rio Grande.
I can’t get most of them to open in the Adobe format. Maybe others can.

I just looked at the first one. The one thing that jumps out at me is the existing barrier going straight across land rather than trying to follow the tortuous route of the meandering river. Would make the barrier three times (or more) as long in some places.
