Raw Water Intake
Improvements
The existing intake facility had endured damage from several storms which caused erosion and slope failure along the shoreline between the main intake structure and the normal pool elevation of the lake. The continued erosion put the raw water intake at risk. Our team developed design plans for a steel sheet pile wall to provide a vertical bulkhead allowing the slope of the bank to be decreased. Flatter slopes protected by rock rip rap will help to reduce erosion potential on the flatter bank while the steel sheet pile wall protects the upper bank.
