Document Description
This project will include lowering the elevation of two sections of the previously constructed setback levee by approximately three feet to allow flood flow to overtop from the agricultural side of the setback levee to the restored estuary, installing two new 60-inch diameter gated culverts to improve drainage, and re-grading an associated drainage ditch running adjacent to the setback levee to allow for increased surface water storage. The project will also construct a 10-vehicle parking area and turnaround, with accommodation for a standard school bus. A non-motorized boat launch will be created for the public to utilize the restoration area’s Salt River channel, slough channels, and larger Eel River estuary. The existing levee will have an ADA compliant 4-mile out-and-back foot trail constructed with two lookout areas constructed along with benches and picnic tables. WCB Project Tracker ID: 2022097
