Jack Creek Hydr. Rest.
for restoration on the Jack Creek Tract. The primary wetland and the subject of the hydrologic study has undergone
significant degradation over the last 35 years due to dewatering associated with the Jackson-Josephine canal that
traverses the edge of the Jack Creek tract. The concept for this project will be to divert water from the canal into the
wetland to provide rehydration of the wetland and aquifer recharge. The final restoration plan was submitted by PBS&J
Consultants to the District in January 2007. The District selected Mactec to complete the design, permitting and
construction services for the project. The consultant contract is routing internally for review.
