LET’S SUPPORT A MORE SENSIBLE ALTERNATIVE
A broad coalition of cities, community groups, environmental organizations, hydrologists and environmental scientists are joining together to oppose the Army Corps project and propose a more responsible alternative based on the following tenets:
Reduce Overall Scale of Project, including Excavation, Grading and Disposal
Remove from the Project any Creek Segments that are Healthy or Significantly Improving following recent Habitat Restoration Efforts
Limit Habitat and Wildlife Removal
Protect Critical Infrastructure, such as utilities and facilities
Limit Creek Armoring, Rip Rap, Steel Pilings and Creek Bed Raising
Provide Replacement/Mitigation of Temporary and Permanent Habitat Impacts
Require Long Term Monitoring and Performance Guarantees
Implement Habitat Restoration of Degraded Wildlife Areas
Lower Cost to Taxpayers by Reducing Scale of Concept
