RFB-53-25 DMA -CYPRESS CREEK RESTORATION PHASE II
Estimate:
$1,807,751.00
Estimated Length of Project:
360 (Substantial Completion) + 30 (Final Completion)
The Wendell H. Ford Regional Training Center (WHFRTC) is on reclaimed strip-mine land. Cypress Creek is channelized and flows in a straight pattern through broad floodplains within the WHFRTC, resulting in the loss of diverse aquatic habitat complexes. The project will involve the relocation and restoration of +/- 49,770 linear feet of Cypress Creek and its tributaries using natural channel design principles. The objective of this project is to establish a stable, natural stream pattern and dimension to restore the existing degraded habitat, altered primary physical processes, and destabilized in-stream conditions.
