DESCRIPTION
This project is a component of a much larger levee reconfiguration project in the Gap to Gap reach of the Yakima River. With the expenditures under this grant, Yakima County will acquire 4 properties (totaling 8.1 acres) necessary to allow future setback of the Diking Improvement District #1 Levee along the Yakima River downstream of SR24. In addition, Yakima County will either purchase or acquire a flood hazard reduction and habitat enhancement easement on 89 acres of the Newland Property. The properties contain both riparian and upland areas located in the floodplain of the Yakima River. This project will protect floodplains adjacent to the Yakima River in order to facilitate their future restoration and reconnection with the river. Accessibility of floodplains will result in increased ecosystem function to benefit priority species and the habitat necessary to support them. Any structures located on the properties will be removed at a later time outside of this grant.
