Elements: Working with ArcGIS Pro 3.2.2 Line feature Class; NHD Stream Network 30mx30m raster; Slope calculated from DEM

I need to calculate the area weighted average of the  stream bank slope on each side of the stream.  (This is so that I can do a variable buffer later using these slope values).

I'd like to find and attribute stream lines into similar classes of slope,  there are 3 classes.  (0-25%, 25-50%,50%+).   Not sure how to do that ...

1 thought was to make the lines into points (every 10' or so).  The point file  could be attributed with the slope values using a 10' X 100' moving window for each side of the stream... (topological left and right along the ground for 100').

That point file could then be evaluated to bin like values to be used for a subsequent variable buffer operation. 

 

low variance and binned into 3 slope classes.
