Floodplain and Floodway Impacts

Based on the Hydrologic and Hydrolic (H&H) analyses and the supporting modeling, the anticipated impacts of the project will:

• not increase the base flood elevation
• not impact occupied structures
• minimize adverse flood impacts and create long-term channel stability

Potential Effects to Adjacent Properties

During construction, temporary impact may include:

• construction noise
• equipment operation
• limited access restrictions near the project area

There are no anticipated changes to access or use of private property.

Public Review
