Scope Of Work
This wetland restoration project has been in the making for nearly a decade and is part of an ongoing vision to see 1,000-acres of coastal wetlands restored.
Our proposed work included the following:
Diked Wetland Construction
Tile removal/placement, erosion control measures, mass excavation and embankment for dikes and islands, riprap/fabric, pumps/pump unit structures & electric, habitat structures, and seed & mulch.
Park Amenity Construction
Boardwalks, aggregate paths, fishing and boat launch platforms/structures, aggregate road and lot, timber retaining walls & bollards, benches, signage and site utilities.
Complete with 5+ miles of walking trails, a 1,300 ft boardwalk, fishing & observation platforms, and 6-miles of navigable kayaking channels, this park has become a destination on Lake Erie.
