Document Description
This project proposes reconstruction of a bridge, boardwalk, and overlook along Nicholas Pond Trail due to wildfire damage. The project would involve excavating the bridge approaches for 5-10 feet in order to replace the burned-out soil dams. The excavated area will be 4’ deep by 6’ wide by the 10’ length on each approach. Original fill will be used to rebuild the approaches once the soil dams are replaced. The boardwalk and overlook will match original specifications (i.e., 160 sf overlook and 30’ of boardwalk).
