Site work for a water / sewer project in Greenville, Kentucky. Completed plans call for site work for a water / sewer project; water / sewer project; and water / sewer project.

The Wendell H. Ford Regional Training Center (WHFRTC) is on reclaimed strip-mine land. Cypress Creek is channelized and flows in a straight pattern through broad floodplains within the WHFRTC, resulting in the loss of diverse aquatic habitat complexes. The project will involve the relocation and restoration of +/- 49,770 linear feet of Cypress Creek and its tributaries using natural channel design principles. The objective of this project is to establish a stable, natural stream pattern and dimension to restore the existing degraded habitat, altered primary physical processes, and destabilized in-stream conditions. Because of the size and scope of the project, construction will be accomplished in eight (8) phases following a logical sequence of work (see Exhibit 1, Page 2). This bid package is for Phase 1 of the project involving the restoration of ~6,780 linear feet of stream. The bid will include a main bid and two additive alternates. The main bid consists of 5,280 linear feet of stream restoration on Cypress Creek (STA 0+00 – 52+80). Work will include, but is not limited to, excavation of proposed channels and floodplains; construction of in-stream structures and bank treatments; reshaping of existing channels; preparation of seedbeds; installation of erosion control blanket and mulch; and installation of native seeds, trees, shrubs, and live stakes. Grading and shaping may also occur within the floodplains adjacent to project streams to facilitate the storage and/or transport of floodwaters. Additive alternate #1 will include ~667 linear feet of stream restoration on Cypress Creek (STA 52+05 – 58+72). Work will include, but is not limited to, excavation of proposed channels and floodplains; construction of in-stream structures and bank treatments; reshaping of existing channels; preparation of seedbeds; installation of erosion control blanket and mulch; culvert replacement; and installation of native seeds, trees, shrubs, and live stakes. Grading and shaping may also occur within the floodplains adjacent to project streams to facilitate the storage and/or transport of floodwaters. Minor tie-in of existing tributaries 1-8 and 1-9 will be required if Add Alternate 2 is not performed. Additive alternate #2 will include ~830 linear feet of stream restoration on tributaries to Cypress Creek (Tributaries 1-8 and 1-9). Work will include, but is not limited to, excavation of proposed channels and floodplains; construction of in-stream structures and bank treatments; reshaping of existing channels; preparation of seedbeds; installation of erosion control blanket and mulch; culvert replacement; and installation of native seeds, trees, shrubs, and live stakes. Grading and shaping may also occur within the floodplains adjacent to project streams to facilitate the storage and/or transport of floodwaters.
