Site work for a military facility in Granite Falls, Minnesota. Conceptual plans call for site work for a military facility.

The work consists of providing riverbank stabilization along the Minnesota River near Granite Falls, Minnesota, to protect infrastructure and associated natural resources from continued erosion. Construction activities are expected to include site preparation such as establishing access roads, staging areas, and temporary traffic or public access controls, along with excavation, grading, and reshaping of existing riverbanks to achieve stable slope conditions. The project includes placement of riprap, revetment, or similar armoring systems, as well as limited structural features as required to stabilize the riverbank. In-water and near-water construction activities are anticipated, including temporary cofferdams, dewatering operations, turbidity control, and implementation of environmental protection measures in compliance with applicable permits. The work also involves installation and maintenance of erosion and sediment control best management practices, such as silt fencing, erosion control blankets, wattles, and inlet protection. Final activities include site restoration consisting of placement of topsoil, native seeding and plantings, removal of temporary features, and full demobilization and cleanup. Construction is anticipated to occur over an extended duration, with in-water work performed within approved seasonal work windows established by regulatory permits. Estimated Magnitude: Between $5,000,000 and $10,000,000. Location: Minnesota River near Granite Falls, Yellow Medicine County, Minnesota. *The value for this project is based on a financial range.
