SWG-2012-01017 - City of Huntsville - Walker County

Published April 2, 2014
Expiration date: 5/2/2014

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:  The applicant proposes to discharge fill material during excavation, bank lay back, and realignment of 2,333 linear feet (0.68 acres) of Town Creek to improve stormwater management and reduce localized flooding.  The main pilot channel of Town Creek will be re-established to its historical location which is an average of 2.5 feet from its current location.  The applicant proposes to construct, within the realigned channel, the following in-stream structures in an effort to reduce erosion: 428 linear feet of overhanging vegetation, 1,723 linear feet of planting with vegetative root wads, ripple and plunge pools, j-hook vanes, and riprap to maintain channel integrity.  The applicant anticipates use of these in-stream habitat features will allow for the creation of floodplain wetlands and provide a net increase in aquatic resource area.  The capacity of Town Creek will not be increased by this proposed project.
