Document Description
The project consists of two phases of sediment management activities, each with independent utility, and associated measures intended to minimize and avoid the potential for adverse environmental effects to occur as a result of those activities. Specifically, Phase One includes 1.3 acres of earthwork with heavy equipment in the active river channel upstream of the Freeman Diversion facility. The earthwork is intended to establish a new low-flow channel which will restore conveyance capacity of the bypass channel and ensure operational reliability of the Freeman Diversion and fish passage facilities. Phase One is planned to be completed in Fall 2021 while river conditions on site are dry. Phase Two includes a long-term program of recurring sediment management activities within a 6-acre area, intended to provide operational reliability under changed future conditions. Only Phase One was approved by the United Water Conservation District Board of Directors. Phase Two approval will be considered at a later time.
