Work Areas: This repair site is located on the east side of the Sacramento River beginning just downstream of the Westin Hotel (Scott's Seafood) to approximately 1,150 linear feet downstream. Site preparation work in advance of construction should be conducted between November 2021-February 2022. This particular reach of Sacramento River bank has been identified as a critical erosion risk and will be brought up to modern bank protection standards.ĭuration: Construction is slated to start in spring 2022 and will continue through October 2022. Objective: This water-side bank protection repair project is located within the City of Sacramento, California. Public comments will be accepted until December 31, 2022, and can be submitted to Scoping Meeting Presentation Slides (Updated November 30) Virtual public meetings were held November 2 and November 30, 2022, to discuss the development of the Draft SEIS/SEIR. The public scoping period has been extended to December 31, 2022. A correction was made to accurately reflect the correct public comment period closing date of December 1, 2022. The NOI incorrectly states that the public comment period closes on November 31, 2022. The Notice of Intent (NOI) to prepare the draft SEIS/SEIR can be found HERE. The SEIS/SEIR will focus on new or different features of project designs that have evolved since the original 2016 ARCF General Reevaluation Report (GRR) Final Environmental Impact Statement/Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIS/FEIR) was completed, while analyzing the potential environmental impacts of these changes. This supplemental document will centralize where the public and agencies can look for the most current project information and will bring environmental considerations up to date. USACE is preparing to draft a Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement/Subsequent Environmental Impact Review (SEIS/SEIR) to analyze changes made during final preliminary design of multiple contract actions within the American River Common Features (ARCF) project that could result in potentially significant environmental effects. The authorized work includes up to: 13 miles of seepage cutoff walls, 21 miles of bank protection, 5 miles of levee stabilization, 5 miles of levee raises and widening the Sacramento Weir and bypass. This allows us to more efficiently implement nearly $1.8 billion in upgrades to Sacramento's flood risk management system. Through the Bipartisan Budget Act, the Corps has received full upfront funding to modernize Sacramento's aging flood infrastructure. Army Corps of Engineers, California’s Central Valley Flood Protection Board, California Department of Water Resources, and the Sacramento Area Flood Control Agency have made tremendous progress in reducing the flood risk, but more work remains. But that system, just like a chain, is only as strong as its weakest link. Greater Sacramento, California, is often considered to be the most at-risk region in America for catastrophic flooding, relying on an aging system of levees, weirs and bypasses and Folsom Dam to reduce its flood risk.
