We're looking forward to this project breaking ground soon. CORVUS provided Clean Water Act (CWA) section 404 compliance, with a wetland delineation, CO Stream Quantification Tool assessment, and permitting through the US Army Corps of Engineers. We are tasked with assisting with construction oversight for revegetation and will likely stay on the project for a handful of years after completion, monitoring and advising on continued vegetation success and stream health.
Exciting developments are soon underway along Westerly Creek at Stanley Marketplace! Construction will begin this winter on project that will transform the corridor and has been years in the making. Some of the key project objectives include rehabilitating channel health by restoring over 1,500 linear feet of channel and establishing connectivity through the corridor through over 1,000 linear feet of regional trail and two bridge crossings. This project will also maximize open space and recreation as work was done with private property owners to enhance programmatic space. Water quality becoming an amenity by providing nearly 3 ac-ft of water quality for the adjacent redeveloping neighborhood was also a priority. As with all our projects it wouldn’t nearly be the success without the amazing project team we are fortunate to work with. The project sponsors included both Mile High Flood District and City of Aurora and our design team was comprised of Stream Landscape Architecture + Planning (who developed the awesome graphics!), San Engineering LLC, GROUND Engineering Consultants, Inc., CORVUS Environmental Consulting, Clanton & Associates, and T2 Utility Engineers. Keep your eye out for frequent updates as construction begins!
