Fir Bank Stabilization Project Underway

EFFECTIVE DATE July 15, 2026 

Construction Notice – Fir Bank Stabilization Project

As construction activities begin, residents will notice an increase in construction vehicles and heavy equipment in the area as crews mobilize on site.
For your safety, please stay clear of the active construction zone. Access to the work site is not permitted due to health and safety regulations and safe work practices. This includes avoiding the river adjacent to the construction area while work is underway.

To maximize the limited fisheries instream work window, construction will operate with expanded work hours and extended work days until the instream works are complete.
We appreciate your patience and cooperation as this important flood mitigation work progresses.
