San Dieguito Lagoon Levee, Habitat Enhancement, and Trail Project

The Project consists of three reaches of the shoreline: North Riverbank, Southeast Riverbank, and Southwest Riverbank. The Project would involve incorporation of living levee design concepts to improve resilience to sea level rise (SLR), provide flood protection, meet FEMA’s No Rise certification standard for the floodplain, improve local water quality, improve public access, and enhance biodiversity. Additionally, the Project includes demolition of the primary Public Works Facility structure and removing other structures from the FEMA floodway. The replacement Public Works Facility structures (i.e., prefabricated, mobile structures) would be located within the existing Public Works Facility property, beyond the limits of the floodway, in compliance with FEMA’s floodplain standards.
