Project Description
The Chesapeake and Ohio Canal National Historical Park preserves the rich history of the canal. Within the canal, there are many classified structures listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The revetment walls at Level 33 are one of these structures.

This project will reconstruct a failing section of dry-laid stone wall. The wall directly supports a public road that is carried on top of it and is located on the berm side of the canal. At the major segment of interest, this project will temporarily brace, dismantle, and rebuild the stone wall to restore its structural integrity. A wall drain system will be added behind the reconstructed masonry wall to relieve the hydrostatic pressure. The project will require temporary scaffolding and excavation to execute the reconstruction. Demolition and restoration of the existing roadway with appurtenant traffic control measures is included in the work. A few isolated areas of the wall outside the major segment of interest will be stabilized without full wall reconstruction. The canal prism will be used as a staging area, and it will be restored at the conclusion of the project.

The dry laid stone wall in question is approximately 150¿ long and 16¿ ¿ 23¿ high. Failure of the wall would have a direct negative impact on Harper¿s Ferry Road which is a county road located on and surrounded by NPS property. This 1.7-mile segment of road is relied upon by the local community for access to residential and emergency service.
