<br />I <br /> <br />V 11-1 <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />SECTION VII <br /> <br />PHASE A RECOMMENDATIONS <br />AND <br />PHASE B SPECIFIC DIRECTION <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br />I <br /> <br />The consultants for the Urban Drainage and Flood Control District (Wright- <br />McLaughlin Engineers) recommended a combined alternative plan as outlined in <br />Table VII-l reproduced from the Phase A Report. <br /> <br />The total Phase A <br />to $6.58 million. <br />Total improvement <br /> <br />construction cost of the combination alternative amounts <br />This includes $2.57 million for culverts and bridges. <br />cost, including rights-of-way acquisition, is $9,17 million. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />The total annual flood damage reduction resulting from the implementation <br />of the project would be $3.56 million per year, based on Phase A dollars. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />The 100-year planning criteria was recommended by the consultant throughout <br />the entire project. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />The nonstructural (modified) strategy has been recommended for parts of Leyden <br />Creek and the upper most reach of Ralston Creek. These costs include cul- <br />verts and bridge upgrading to span the 100-year flood, The local entities <br />may choose to not improve the culverts and br idges in these four reaches which <br />would result in a construction cost reduction of $272,000, <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />Reach R-2 on Ralston Creek, from Pierce to Garrison Streets, is recommended for <br />a nonstructural strategy with culvert and bridge improvements, This recom- <br />mendation is based upon the fact that the flood plain is quite open along <br />most of this reach and this alternative represents a low level of capital ex- <br />penditure. The City of Arvada might also consider the use of short reaches <br />of channel within R-2, This would not change the overall recommendation for <br />the reach as a whole. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />~;:; <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />The specific direction given by the Urban Drainage and Flood Control District <br />for Phase B is stated in the following letter, Additional direction was ob- <br />tained from the District and from Arvada and Jefferson County in progress <br />meetings, Section VIII describes the resulting alternative developed in Phase B. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br />I <br /> <br />, <br /> <br />I <br />
