This project will consist of repairing and replacing levee shoreline protection and displaced Riprap in the city of Texas City, Texas. The first of three areas to be worked on for this project is a 1.4 mile stretch, east of the tide gate, of shoreline protection that was displaced due to the effects of Hurricane Harvey. The work in this area will included placement of Riprap material to fill in gaps of the stone protection and provide additional stone across the entire length of the shoreline protection. The second of three areas to be worked on is just west of the tide gate and consist of displaced stone protection and shoreline erosion. For this area, construction will consist of removal of existing stone and fill material along the shoreline followed by replacement of this material with new fill material and riprap. Fill materials in this location will need to be placed according to moisture and compaction specifications. The final area for construction activities is located right in front of the Mosses Lake Tide Gate. In this area, on the northern side of the structure, riprap of the appropriate sizing will be placed in the channel bottom and slopes to increase the armoring protection and fill in any gaps in stone protection. Fill and stone materials removed from these area will need to be disposed of properly offsite following any federal/state laws. In areas where fill material is required, soils needed to complete the final grading will be transported to site from commercial barrow source. The reconstructed levee surface will then be sodded to restore vegetation coverage. Stone needed for the shoreline protection will need to be trucked to site from an offsite staging area. 2.
