Document Description
The damaged levee is part of the federal Sacramento River Control Project. Damage consists of 1,500 feet of 1 to 2 feet deep erosion into the standard levee cross section along the waterside levee slope. The water flow has become chaneled between the existing tree line and levee embankment. The proposed repair consists of excavating in steps the 1,500 feet reach of eroded slope and backfilling with impervious soil to conform to the adjacent non-damaged areas. Tge riverbank would be reconstructed to the 3(H):1(V) slope and reseeded with native grasses.
