ENGINEERING REVIEW

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

Irrigation Pumping Plant Workshop

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

ENGINEERING REVIEW

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

ENGINEERING REVIEW

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

Irrigation Pumping Plant Workshop

ENGINEERING REVIEW

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

Irrigation Pumping Plant Workshop

ENGINEERING REVIEW

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

ENGINEERING REVIEW

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

ENGINEERING REVIEW

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

ENGINEERING REVIEW

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

ENGINEERING REVIEW

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

ENGINEERING REVIEW

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

ENGINEERING REVIEW

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

ENGINEERING REVIEW

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

ENGINEERING REVIEW

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

ENGINEERING REVIEW

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

ENGINEERING REVIEW

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

ENGINEERING REVIEW

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

ENGINEERING REVIEW

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

ENGINEERING REVIEW

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

ENGINEERING REVIEW

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

ENGINEERING REVIEW

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

ENGINEERING REVIEW

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

ENGINEERING REVIEW

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

ENGINEERING REVIEW

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

ENGINEERING REVIEW

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

Irrigation Pumping Plant Workshop

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

ENGINEERING REVIEW

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

Irrigation Pumping Plant Workshop

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

ENGINEERING REVIEW

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

Irrigation Pumping Plant Workshop

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

ENGINEERING REVIEW

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

Irrigation Pumping Plant Workshop

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

ENGINEERING REVIEW

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

ENGINEERING REVIEW

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

ENGINEERING REVIEW

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute

Cottonwood 15 Repair

The Stillwater Watershed Office recently completed emergency repair construction on Cottonwood Creek Site 15 that was decommissioned An extreme rainfall event spanning the end of May to the first of June led to a high flow event on the earthen spillway portion that was lined with Turf Reinshyforcement Mat (TRM) The TRM failed during the storm event and due to the frequency of potential flow events through the structure an emergency was declared to repair the structure before the crest section breached which could have led to the release of all the sediment the flood control structure had captured over the past 45 years The repair included replacing the TRM lined channel with a riprap lined channel that carries the water to the downstream outlet channel of the main rock chute
