Project Grant
Overview
Grant Description
The Council for Watershed Health will capture and treat urban stormwater runoff to improve water quality downstream within the Alhambra-Rio Hondo Watershed in South El Monte, California, a highly urbanized and economically disadvantaged community located in the San Gabriel Valley of Los Angeles County, California.
The Council will plant trees and vegetation and install permeable pavement and underground infiltration chambers to capture and passively filter urban runoff along 0.65 miles of Merced Avenue, reducing urban pollutant loads discharged downstream into the Rio Hondo River, the San Gabriel River, and Legg Lake within Whittier Narrows Recreation Area, and contributing to groundwater augmentation of the San Gabriel East Basin.
The project is an element of both the Enhanced Watershed Management Plan for the Upper Los Angeles River Watershed and the Greater Los Angeles County Integrated Regional Watershed Management Program.
The project design was developed and will be constructed with significant community involvement and engagement through community workshops and meetings, and with funding contributions from the City of South El Monte and California Natural Resources Agency.
