SASD Creek Protection Project Phase II

SASD Creek Protection Project Phase II

The Sacramento Area Sewer District evaluated 41 sewer creek crossings to determine if maintenance is required to prevent accidental sewage discharge into local waterways. All sites were ranked based on accidental discharge potential. Five sites were considered priority and were repaired on rerouted as part of the Creek Protection Project Five Priority Sites construction process. This project analyzes the next set of prioritized creek crossings which will be repaired in 2014 and 2015. These five sites require a variety of maintenance activities and are described in detail below. Common with all site repairs is the hydroseeding of disturbed areas and appropriate erosion control measures within the creek channel. At one priority site, the solution effectively replace two creek crossings within a few hundred feet of one another. Therefore, six sites of the 41 evaluated have completed construction.
