alluvial plain, wash plain, waste plain (s) (noun); alluvial plains; wash plains; waste plains (pl)
A tract of gently sloping land by a river that periodically overflows depositing clay, silt, or gravel which has been brought downstream where the water slows down: Mike and his family decided to pitch their tents on the alluvial plain near the river because it was flat and sandy.
