GOODING, Idaho – The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Walla Walla District and the City of Gooding, Idaho are holding a Project Partnership Agreement signing ceremony for the Little Wood River Channel Rehabilitation Project on March 28.
The agreement defines the shared responsibilities and cost-sharing commitments of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the City of Gooding as they jointly work to rehabilitate the Gooding Canal that provides a channel for the Little Wood River as it flows through the city.
The signing ceremony will be held March 28 from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. at the fire station located at 2155 Montana Street, Gooding, Idaho.
The project aims to replace and/or repair parts of the Gooding Canal to reduce local flood risk and damages that would result from channel wall failure and ice jams along the Gooding Canal.
Once the agreement has been signed, USACE will perform a topographical/geotechnical survey and model flow through the channel. USACE will use this information to develop a conceptual design for the project before contracting it for construction.
