King Basin Project

King Basin Project

The Project would consist of the construction, operation and maintenance of a water management basin for the purposes of flood control and groundwater recharge. The basin will be excavated below natural grade with the material being temporarily stockpiled on-site and then transported off-site in response to local demands for the export. A Repogle Flume will be constructed within Johnson Slough at the downstream boundary of the basin to retain, attenuate and measure flows within the channel. Project maintenance will consist of vegetation management. Protected and restored habitat and natural plant communities will be preserved, while invasive and non-native vegetation will be routinely disked on a semi-annual schedule. The project is proposing to initiate construction during the fall of 2014 with an expected duration estimated at one year.
