Document Description
The proposed project would involve construction and operation of a water wheel, loosely modeled after the historic wheel that existed near the project location and would include excavation of a 1,300 cubic yard pit and maintenance area for installation of the water wheel. It would also include construction of a side channel to the LA River, connecting the LA River to the water wheel pit and installation of an inflatable dam within the LA River channel, creating a water impoundment area upstream of the proposed inflatable dam. The purpose of the proposed project is to physically divert water from the LA River and create an aesthetic/educational statement, showing that the LA River can be used as a source of water.
