Cayuse Cove Slope Stabilization

The Department of Interior, Bureau of Reclamation, Columbia Pacific-Northwest Region requires bank stabilization along the Spokane Arm of Lake Roosevelt in northeastern WA. Approximately 950 linear feet of the shoreline bank is actively eroding from wave action when the lake is near the full pool water surface elevation. This project would stabilize the shoreline and halt bank erosion at the Cayuse Cove project site through the installation of fill-covered gabion baskets and a cellular containment system (Geoweb or a similar product) that would be reinforced with plantings of native shrub seedlings and grass seeds. Project staging would occur approximately eight (8) miles downstream of the project site at Porcupine Bay Campground. Staging area is on Reclamation withdrawn lands that is managed by the National Park Service. Construction of the slope stabilization system would be barge-based and occur in three (3) phases to coincide with funding and the fluctuation of the water surface elevation of Franklin D. Roosevelt Lake. The water surface elevation must be below elevation of 1283.0¿ in order to start construction of all phases (generally from mid to late August through the end of September). Work is located approximately 42 miles East of Grand Coulee, WA. in Lincoln County.
