Approximately 60 trees between 8" and 12" in diameter (DIA), 40 trees between 12" and 24" in DIA, and 5 trees between 30" and 36" in DIA exist in this region. The rest of the vegetation consists of trees smaller than 6" in DIA and brush.

Additional work for the project includes placing gravel along the north crest, grading around the inlet pipe, decommissioning the groundwater well, pump, and electrical accessories, and video inspecting and relining the inlet and outlet pipes of the principal outlet structure. Decommissioning the groundwater and monitoring wells will include placing sand in the well casings, tamping it down in lifts, cutting off the well casing 3 ft below the ground surface, and then burying with sand.
