Document Description
The inadequate River Avenue drainage system has resulted in flooding to adjacent residents. The project proposed to bring the system flood protection in this area to a full 10 yr protection level. The proposal involves construction of a parallel storm drain system along River Avenue (which is located Wardlow Road/23rd Street to the north to an underground storage (detention) basin proposed on the SCE property). The detention basin would temporarily hold 2 acre ft of storm water during heavy flows and then release the flows as the storm abates. The proposed detention basin would allow the downstream pipe to no longer flow full. The City has elected to proceed with the 10 yr frequency flood level protection improvement option.
