Document Title: Miner Slough Levee Repair
Document Type: MND - Mitigated Negative Declaration
Received: 2/24/2014

Document Description: DWR proposes to repair the Miner Slough levee from approximate river miles 1.8 to 5. The levee repair will be completed from a barge within Miner Slough with assistance from equipment, most likely an excavator, on the levee crown. DWR proposes to repair the levee by placing a rock slope protection and soil mix to reshape the area to the original levee slope. The work will be done in a manner that will not change the character, scope, or size of the original levee design and will not result in expanding the existing use of the levee. Seeding and replanting with native seed and trees will follow up the repair work. The project is located within the Liberty Island Quadrangle, Township 5 North, Range 3 East, MDB&M.
