Residents voted to implement a $2.4M project to mitigate flooding by removing 21,500 cubic yards of sediment from the lake to increase its water containment. Along with the replacement of an existing bulkhead, pipes needed to be reconstructed to extend through the bulkhead and self-regulating tidal gates were also installed. Delta provided structural design and shop drawings for precast sluice gates to control water levels and flow rates and two tidal gate chambers to prevent water from flowing the other direction.
