This project is being partially funded by the NRCS through the Small Watershed Rehabilitation Amendments of 2000 (Section 313 of Public Law 106-472), which authorizes technical and financial assistance to Local Sponsors to rehabilitate aging flood control dams built under the Watershed Protection and Flood Prevention Act of 1954 (Public Law 83-566) that are reaching the end of their design life and/or no longer meet federal or state safety criteria or performance standards.

NRCS has a three-phase plan. The first phase, a dam assessment, was completed in February 2005. It was determined that the dam generally is well maintained and in satisfactory operating condition aside from the inadequate emergency spillway capacity. The second phase is preparation of a Supplemental Watershed Plan and Environmental Assessment (Plan-EA), followed by a third phase of design and construction.

The first public meeting will be held where NRCS, Sponsor, and GENTERRA Consultants, Inc. will have the opportunity to describe the project to the general public, stakeholders, and cooperating agencies so that they would have the opportunity to provide comments, concerns, and/or suggestions associated with the various alternatives under considerations including a full rehabilitation of the structure to help us identify the important issues early in the planning process. Details for the public meeting and public comment period are shown below.
