Document Description
Levee improvements will be constructed along the south side of Twitchell Island to increase the levee's resistance to erosion, provide better overall levee stability, and provide enhanced rearing and out-migration habitat for juvenile salmonids. Improvements include nearly 4 miles of new foundation berm and setback levee, raising the height of an existing setback levee, a new sheet-pile wall in front of the existing pump station, a new dryland levee across Chevron Point, and creation of channel margin habitat. Materials to construct the improvements will be obtained from commercially available sources likely within 50-60 miles, and transported to the site by truck and by barge.
