Project Description: |
This project will install 9 stormwater injection wells and mini collection systems in the drainage that drains to the Garrison Bight via wetlands. The water flow from this basin currently overpowers the outflow of water from the adjacent United/Ashby basin which has significant repetitively flooded homes. The services to be provided by the project include engineering, construction management and installation of wells, pollutant discharge reduction devices, piping and inlets. |
