The proposed project includes removing accumulated sediment, replacing the facility's principal spillway and riser with concrete structures, creating a shallow wetland with a forebay and micropool, and stabilizing the outfall channel with rock riprap.

Construction is expected to begin in January 2027 and be completed by October 2027, weather permitting.

County officials will present the project plans during an informal meeting followed by a question-and-answer session. Staff from the Department of Public Works and the project's engineering consultant will also be available to answer questions and receive public feedback.
