Heagle Park Floodplain Restoration

The purpose of the Heagle Park floodplain restoration is to prevent flooding impacts to the City of Hailey’s wastewater lift station. The work includes a regrade along Della Mountain, removing approximately 250 cubic yards of material, the

installation of a number of engineered Log jams upstream to promote desirable hydrologic

pathways and the removal of approximately 365 linear feet of legacy riprap to reconstruct a

historic floodplain bench. Additionally, 1,100 tons of Class III riprap will be imported to provide

additional protection and fortification.

The Flood Control District #9 is a partner in this project along with the Idaho Water Resource Board, Land Water and Wildlife Program, and the Wood River Land Trust.
