Document Description
Replace the existing 30-inch diameter by 120' long corrugated metal pipe (CMP) with a 96" diameter by 120' long CMP culvert on an unnamed trubutary of Griffin Creek at Milepost 1.94 of Oregon Mountain Road (County Road 324). The existing culvert is undersized to convey flows greater than a 10 year storm event, is rotting and at high risk of failure. The new culvert is sized to convey the 100+ year storm flow and will be set at a reduced gradient compared to the existing culvert. The project will close Oregon Mountain Road for 4-6 weeks in August and September, 2013.
