Lake Madrone Sediment Removal
The removal of an estimated 42,000 - 45,000 cubic yards (CY) of sediments including soft sediments, granite sand, and other organic materials from Lake Madrone within channels Berry Creek, Galen Creek, and from coves within Moss Creek and Fern Dell Creek tributaries. This sediment was deposited from the severe winter storms during Winter 2022/2023 (California Severe Winter Storms, Flooding, Landslides, and Mudslides, DR-4683). Excavated sediment material from Lake Madrone will be transported off-site to a certified and qualified disposal site and a bathymetric study of Lake Madrone will be conducted after removal is completed to certify new elevations and water storage capacity for the Berry Creek community.
