Levee Raise MRLS R471-460 North of US-36 Elwood/Gladden

The project will modify the levee from station 0+00 connecting to the hillside bluff at the northern most portion of Valencia Road to station 375+00 north of US-36 and the Union Pacific railroad bridge (approximately 7 miles). Under-seepage improvements (berms) will be constructed along the length of the levee as well as modifying and extending 2 gate-well structures and pipes ranging in size from 24 inches to 60 inches and 150 feet to 800 feet long. The raise ranges in height between 6 inches and 3 feet. Earthen material to be used for the raise and seepage berms will come from the hillside bluff north of the intersection of Valencia and Treece Roads and from multiple riverward side areas adjacent to the levee for the approximate 700,000 cubic yards of compacted material.
