Project HistoryRoutine Maintenance

Several Attempts Over the Past Decade to Correct/Prevent Further Erosion

Previous Project (Project No. 406407-1-52-01)Constructed in 2002 Included Plantings, Erosion Control Mats, Sand-Cement

Ditch Blocks, a Gabion Basket, and Rubble Rip-Rap

January 2006Removal of Overgrowth; Inclusion of Additional Sand-

Existing Conditions Ditch has Deepened, Causing Severe Bank Erosion on Both

Sides Erosion is Encroaching on the Surrounding Residents’ Backyards Neighbors have Built Retaining Walls Residential Fences are Beginning to Lean and Lose Stability

Ditch is Difficult for Florida Department of Transportation to Maintain Hard to Access Costly to Maintain
