Document Description
The Operator proposes to alter the streambed and banks through the repair and upgrade of an existing maintenance access road which has severely eroded in the January 2005 storm events and washed out a 450-foot long segment of the 30-foot wide access road to the base of Morris Dam. The damaged road and its embankment need to be restored to provide vehicle access to the base of the dam for emergency repair and routine maintenance and dam safety monitoring activities. The scoured access road and earth bends will be restored with a combination of a 20-foot wide road and 18-foot wide steel bridge.
The Operator shall not impact more than 0.31 acre of stream channel and associated non-vegetated riparian habitat. All disturbed portions of the stream channel or banks shall be restored to their original condition or better.
