Feasibility Study for the Plaza Project - Phase z: McDonald Ditch Implementation Project <br />Figure 11. Power Poles Near the McDonald Ditch Diversion <br />7.3.5 Preserving the Old Sevenraile Plaza Bridge Pier <br />During the investigation of alternatives and implementation planning, a resident of the <br />Sevenmile Plaza expressed the desire to conserve the pier from the old Sevenmile Plaza Bridge, <br />which currently comprises a portion of the McDD diversion. As such, NRCS considered keeping <br />the pier in place to serve as part of the new diversion. However, it was determined that, because <br />the footer and bed material beneath the pier are unknown, it was too risky to tie the new <br />diversion into the pier and impossible to ensure the structure would be stable. To honor the <br />sentiment of this historic piece of the Sevenmile Plaza, the stakeholders proposed installing a <br />sign or plaque once the new diversion is in place. <br />Figure 12.
