Project Location: The proposed project is located on West Indian Creek and a tributary to West Indian Creek in Section 7, Township 83 North, Range 22 West and Section 12, Township 83 North, Range 23 West, Story County, Iowa within the City of Nevada.
Project Description:
A. The Applicant has proposed two separate but related streambank protection projects that are sponsored by the Iowa State Revolving Fund which received funds from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
Project A is on the main stem of West Indian Creek and includes the stabilization of West Indian Creek from approximately 750 feet downstream of West Lincoln Highway to approximately 650 feet upstream of E Avenue. This project is approximately 4100 feet long and techniques used will include stone toe protection, bio-engineering techniques, floodplain benches, large wood debris and cross vane weirs to reduce erosion.
Project B is located on a tributary of West Indian Creek. This project will stabilize approximately 1300 feet along the tributary and will include the same strategies as West Indian Creek. Techniques used will include stone toe protection, bio-engineering techniques, floodplain benches, large wood debris and cross vane weirs to reduce erosion.
