- Document Description
- United is proposing to conduct geotechnical testing in order to properly design the foundation for a hardened ramp at the Freeman Diversion Dam. This ramp has been identified as a means to improve passage conditions for steelhead and the Pacific lamprey compared to passage conditions afforded by the current fish ladder. The testing would take place adjacent to the upstream side of the dam and involves construction of a temporary pad (80ft x 350ft), using adjacent river sediments, to support testing equipment. The pad would be removed immediately after testing is complete. Equipment includes a bulldozer, 2 excavators, 2 loaders, a drill rig, and a backhoe. The project would take approximately 21 working days and is scheduled for November 2012. The work area would be dewatered to the extent feasible by management of United's facility operations. Access is from the north via the top of the dam. Best management practices will be used during all work to minimize or prevent effects on water and sediment quality. A maximum of 2.1 acres of river bed would be temporarily disturbed, and noise from equipment would be above 69 decibels within 500 feet of the work site.
