Document Description
The project is limited to sediment and invasive aquatic plant removal in the channel and coastline of Land’s End. Approximately 2,500 cubic yards of decayed plant material, sediment, and invasive aquatic plants will be removed from the dry canal. Sediment removal will be accomplished using hand tools, an excavator, and a bobcat. Access to the canal will be done through existing unvegetated access points. To protect the state-listed threatened Clear Lake hitch, the work period for sediment removal will be confined to periods when the water level in Clear Lake is below a Rumsey Gauge height of 3.5 feet (1321.8 National Geodetic Vertical Datum). Work will not be conducted if water present in the work area is connected to the lake, or if the water is flowing. Removed material will be dried and stored where it cannot re-enter Clear Lake. Dump trucks will be used to transport the removed material to the landfill.
