Specifications include, but are not limited to: The proposed flood works will be comprised of earthen levee, I-wall floodwall, and inverted T-wall floodwall along the Project reach. The Project will also integrate floodgates for necessary closures, sluicegates at utility crossings and elements of interior drainage and associated pumping/discharge facilities needed for flood works construction. At approximately River Mile 240.20, the flood works will join the existing Indianapolis North Flood Damage Reduction Project (INFDRP) Phase 3B2 earthen levee near the Riviera Club located at 5640 N. Illinois Street, utilizing required construction specifications. The INFDRP is a federally funded and constructed levee. At approximately River Mile 238.35, the flood works will terminate at natural high ground after crossing the Indianapolis Water Canal by means of floodgates. The proposed flood works extend along the north and west property limits of the Town of Rocky Ripple and Butler University. Existing residences in the Town of Rocky Ripple are near construction contractor’s work limits, and it is vitally important that work to construct the flood works protects the identified residences. The construction work will also encroach into the floodway requiring a State of Indiana Construction in the Floodway Permit.; DPW proposes to complete flood works along the left (east) bank of the West Fork of the White River beginning at approximately River Mile 238.35 and ending at approximately River Mile 240.20 The proposed flood works will extend along the north and west property limits of the Town of Rocky Ripple and Butler University.
