Project Description:

The requirement for this project is to remediate and control the sediment that has been accumulating upstream of the Garrison Dam spillway structure above the flood gates. This rehabilitation project consists of three (3) main features of work:

1. The first feature is repairing and armoring a portion of the eastern channel bank. This involves dredging material in the spillway in front of the bank, sloping the embankment, placing bedding, fabric, aggregate, mesh, post and riprap needed to build the slope to the design provided by the government.

2. The second feature of work is performing further dredging on the upstream side of the tainter gates. This will allow for free gate operation and allow the bubbler system to perform as designed keeping the front of the gates free of ice in the winter.

3. The third feature of work is building a retention sediment ponding facility at a location below the dam between the spillway and the fish hatchery. The dredged material will be piped over to this facility where the sediment will settle out per the government design.
