Document Description
DWR staff will break down, fill, and repair two areas of erosion on the southern slope behind Bank’s Pumping Plant. The erosion at MM 3.14 will be broken down with a backhoe/long-reach excavator and then native soil fill material will be used to compact and reshape the erosion as needed. The erosion located at MM 3.02 is along the southern boundary of the parking lot. K-rails will be moved and debris from the eroded hillside cleared with a backhoe/excavator. Loose soil from the hillside will be re-compacted. All staging and work are within the DWR right of way.
