Hydrologic Integrity
Stormwater Management
The Project includes the design and implementation of water quality and erosion control features on State Route 28 from Spooner Summit to Sand Harbor State Park. The project will include source control, conveyance and treatment facilities for stormwater runoff. This project area is comprised of steep cut slopes and narrow shoulder areas for treatment. Recreational uses are prominent in this area and therefore water quality improvements will need to be designed to accommodate this land use.
