- Description
- JOB DESCRIPTION: The Sacramento District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has an upcoming acquisition to establish contracts to construct a setback levee about 6.8 miles long and degrade an existing "J" levee, actively restoring 1,145 acres of riparian woodland, 261 acres of riparian shrub, and 70 acres of floodplain meadow now cut off by that levee. To accomplish ecosystem restoration, most of an existing "J" levee will be removed to reconnect the river to the floodplain and allow for overbank flooding. In areas where the "J" levee reduces velocities of the Sacramento River, the "J" levee will remain in place. The new setback levee will begin two miles north of Hamilton City. It will tie into high ground near the end of the "J" levee to prevent flows greater than 250 year event from wrapping around the setback levee and over County Road 203 and into populated areas. County Road 203 will be ramped approximately 2.5 feet from its current height over the setback levee. Glenn County constructed a short setback levee near the northern end of the "J" levee in 2003, that is serving as a "training dike" for the new setback levee. Entrenched rock will be placed on either of the waterside or landside of this training dike to direct flows and potential river migration away from the new setback levee. The setback levee will run SE along County Road 203 then turn easterly and run parallel to the Sacramento River for about 1,300 feet. A seepage berm will be constructed on the landside of the setback levee from the northern end of the levee to Dunning Slough. The levee will have a 90 percent reliability of passing the 75 year event. At Highway 32, the levee will turn east and run parallel to the highway until tying into the approach at Gianella Bridge. The highway will not need to be raised, but rock riprap will be placed to protect the levee embankment and bridge from floodwaters. South of Highway 32, the alignment follows the existing "J" levee adjacent to Irvine Finch River Access. South of this access, the levee will be aligned away from the river to open up the floodplain. The alignment will cut across a portion of Dunning Slough and provide protection to the Hamilton City wastewater treatment plant. An existing ditch within Dunning Slough will be used to drain runoff from the agricultural fields and Hamilton City. This drain will connect to the floodplain via a culvert in the setback levee south of Dunning Slough. The alignment will follow the western edge of the habitat restoration area before turning east and merging with the southern end of the "J" levee at Road 23. As the levee turns east, the levee height will gradually decrease from 9 feet to approximately 2 feet. At this point the new setback levee will transition into a "training dike". This height reduction will avoid negative hydraulic effects to downstream property owners. The training dike continues a mile south of Road 23, running west of the United Status Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) boundary. This project will manage flood risk for the town of Hamilton City and adjacent agricultural lands while providing significant habitat acreage in the floodplain.
