Document Description
Replacement of previously washed away rip-rap with 1- and 2-ton rip-rap within an approximate 400 sq. ft. area (20' wide x 20' long) of English Creek southerly and downstream of the Vista del Lago pedestrian bridge, and an additional approximately 200 sq. ft. area (8' wide x 25' long) north of the vehicle bridge. The purpose of the rip-rap is to stabilize the invert of the bridge and the adjoining embankments. The embankment south of the pedestrian bridge is severely undercut and the westerly bridge abutment is in danger of failing if erosion continues. Two three hundred square foot areas of existing vegetation will be removed along the west embankment within the work area in order to allow a track hoe access to the areas to place the rip-rap. After work is complete, vegetation will be replanted in-kind. Stockpiling of rip-rap, prior to construction, will occur on the paved trail upland of the creek. An erosion control and dewatering plan will minimize riparian impacts.
