Document Description
Project will provide concrete rock slope protection to existing west levee of Mojave River. Some portions of the levee may increase up to 4 feet in height to meet design standards for containing 100-year flood. Slope protection will consist of concreted rock installed from approx. 10 ft. below channel bed surface to top of levee bank. Portions of stand of cottonwood trees will be removed to allow construction equipment to access existing earthen levee. The project was identified and discussed in the Floodplain Maintenance Plan (FMP) which provided for mitigation measures for temporary impacts to existing vegetation and riparian habitat used by protected species. The proposed improvements are needed to protect existing properties and residences located just west of the Mojave River from potential 100-year floods.
