Greenville County has been awarded an ARPA-Funded Stormwater Infrastructure Program (ASIP) grant through the South Carolina Office of Resilience (SCOR) to establish a riparian forest and perform a restoration along the Reedy River watershed.

*This bid includes two separate projects at separate locations*

The Little Creek Stream Improvement and Riparian Area Reclamation project is intended to establish a riparian forest and perform a restoration along previously acquired floodplain buyout properties within the Reedy River watershed. It is a tributary in the upper Reedy River watershed. Near the confluence of Little Creek with the Reedy River, a group of multiple properties were acquired as part of Greenville County’s floodplain buyout program in 2010 to reduce flood risks near the intersection of Plano Drive and Vinson Drive. The proposed project consists of a 6.5-acre reforestation effort, and a one-sided (1,000-ft) and two-sided (400-ft) Priority 2 and 3 stream restoration.

The North Chastain Stream Restoration and Riparian Area Reclamation project is intended to establish a riparian forest and perform a restoration along previously acquired floodplain buyout properties within the Reedy River watershed. The proposed project is contained on County-owned property and consists of a 5.5-acre reforestation effort, a 600-ft Priority 2/3 (as categorized by the USACE) stream restoration of an unnamed tributary, and single-sided 600-ft Priority 3/4 stream restoration of Langston Creek.

The stream restoration work may include bank grading with the help of soil lifts, coir matting, turf reinforcement matting, boulder walls and bank toe treatments (toe rock, toe wood, and boulder toes(s)). They will also include the installation of instream features such as cross vane(s), boulder/constructed riffle(s), stream drop(s), j-hook vane(s), and single arm vane(s). Additionally, these projects may include re-routing or daylighting of streams.

NOTE: ALL SPOIL MATERIAL IS TO BE TAKEN TO BLACKBERRY VALLEY RESIDENTIAL WASTE AND RECYCLING CENTER AT 409 BLACKBERRY VALLEY ROAD, GREENVILLE SC 29617. THERE WILL BE NO TIPPING FEE.

NOTE: BOULDERS ARE AVAILABLE AT NO COST WHEN USED ON THESE PROJECTS AT TWIN CHIMNEYS LANDFILL. SEE "GREENVILLE COUNTY BOULDER STOCKPILE" IN THE ATTACHMENTS SECTION FOR MORE INFORMATION.
