Project Description

This project reconstructed the south bank of Bush Canal using material dredged from the canal. The restored bank-line was then covered with goetextile fabric and armored with stone rip-rap. The rebuilt bank-line will help to diminish storm surge as well as reduce saltwater intrusion. This project was funded by the CIAP of 2001.
