Document Description
The project consists of reclamation work on CVWD property to remove soil stockpiles and scattered concrete debris in accordance with the approved reclamation plan. This will include removal of soil and over burden stockpiles from the river channel, placing fill into a small excavated pit located on the northern boundary of the project site, outside of the OHWM of the Whitewater River Channel, and recontouring areas to site grade within the approximate eight acre area of the 25.75-acre project boundary. Other rehabilitation activities that will take place within this site include the removal of 500 linear feet of an existing earthen berm extending along the southeast corner of the site, and the smoothing of a corner of the existing berm located at the southwest corner of the Garnet site (a separate site located directly north of this project). These activities are designed to improve the overall functional capacity of the Whitewater River channel.
