Project Detail

Project: San Joaquin Reserve Enhancement
Owner: Huntington Beach Wetlands Conservancy
Start date: 8/9/1999
Finish date: 1/24/2000
Value: $1,600,000

Convert an old 40 acre duck hunting club site to a restored freshwater marsh by excavating, recontouring and building ponds and islands from 90,000 CY of existing loose, clay soils and reconnecting area to the San Diego Creek. Remove existing marsh plants, build temporary nursery and store plants in nursery during grading operations, and replant plants after grading completion. Due to the loose nature of the existing soils, the design grading plan was deficient 40,000 CY of fill. We redesigned the grading plan and were able to make to jobsite balance without having to import the additional fill, resulting in a sizable cost savings to the Conservancy.
