Stormwater Management Program Reduce Stormwater Pollution From: Roads and Highways, Forest Roads, Public and Private Parcels
This Project will address existing infrastructure that is old, failing and creating erosion issues within the Cave Rock Estates neighborhood and adjacent US Forest Service and NDSL parcels. The bedfilter, redesigned in 2016, is large enough to treat all stormwater runoff from the Cave Rock Estates neighborhood. Thus, addressing erosion issues and redirecting flow to the bedfilter basin will encompass the majority of design and planning work for the Cave Rock GID Water Quality Improvement Project.
