About this file
This is a Notice of Intent (NOI) for stormwater discharge authorization submitted to the Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) by the City of Wichita for the Arkansas River East Bank Restoration project. The project involves excavation, filling, regrading, and installation of a retaining wall to stabilize soil and promote vegetative growth, removal of an existing temporary sidewalk, and installation of a new 10-foot-wide sidewalk to facilitate pedestrian flow. The project site is located south of Central Avenue and North Nims Avenue in Wichita, Kansas, with a total site area of 1.16 acres and an estimated disturbance area of 1.00 acre. Construction is anticipated to begin June 1, 2025, and be completed by June 1, 2027. The project will discharge stormwater runoff to the Little Arkansas River.
Authorization was granted by KDHE on July 7, 2025, with Kansas permit number S-LA20-0119 and federal permit number KSR123344, valid through July 31, 2027. The stormwater pollution prevention plan includes installation of silt fence, inlet protection, construction entrance, temporary seeding, and erosion control measures throughout the construction phases. The plan was developed by Jeffrey Alan Best, a licensed landscape architect (License No. 679). An annual permit fee of $60.00 is required and must be paid before processing. No conditions or considerations were noted for approval, and no contaminated soils, endangered species habitat impacts, or jurisdictional wetland disturbances were identified at the site.

6. Spread topsoil over future site finish grades and install temporary seeding and erosion control measures.
7. Install localized permanent seeding/sod and landscape when possible and maintain temporary BMPs until permanent landscape and sediment control devices are established.
8. PPD As-builts are to be completed and approved.
9. Upon establishment of 95% permanent sediment and erosion control measures are complete, contractor to coordinate and turn-over permanent erosion control inspection and maintenance manual responsibility to the owner/operator.
