Maplewood Avenue, Suite 300 <br />Englewood, Colorado 80111 <br /> <br />COLORADO WATER <br />CONSERVATION BOARD <br /> <br />Dear Mr. Ray: <br /> <br />On behalf of BRW, Inc. and WRC Engineering, Inc., I am pleased to forward the <br />final draft of the Feasibility Study for the Cherry Creek Basin Drainageway <br />(from Arapahoe Road south to the Arapahoe-Douglas County Line). The study iden- <br />tifies proposed improvements to Cherry Creek, with the goals of 1) maximizing <br />land use, 2) minimizing cost of stream improvements, 3) satisfying the concerns <br />of re9ulatory agencies, and 4) minimizing the risks of upstream and downstream <br />problems. <br /> <br />The selected plan consists of approximately 10,2DO feet of channelization <br />upstream of Arapahoe Road and revetments to stabilize the channel in the upper <br />reaches of the study area. Filling of the flood fringe (1/2 foot floodway) <br />allows for potential reclamation of 215 acres of floodplain property. Aesthetic <br />and recreational improvements within the floodplain are also part of the plan. <br /> <br />The selected plan proposed in this study will be submitted to Arapahoe County <br />for adoption as the master plan to guide drainage improvements within the study <br />area. Arapahoe County will also request concurrence of the Urban Drainage and <br />Flood Control District in the plan. These and other governmental agencies will <br />be involved in approving the implementation of specific segments of the overall <br />plan in the future. <br /> <br />I would like to express thanks to all of the parties who contributed to this <br />unique study. I believe that the selected plan provides a creative guide to the <br />safe use and protection of lands along the Cherry Creek drainageway. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />BRW, Inc. <br /> <br /> <br />Donald E.
