Cherry Valley Sewer Lagoon After Levee Repairs

Cooper creek was eroding the Cherry Valley Sewer lagoon levee.  The damage was encroaching on the lagoon to the point that levee failure was very likely in the near future.  East Arkansas RC&D located design and financial assistance to repair and protect the levee.  This project helped this town of about 600 protect this facility and prevent pollution of surface waters.
