LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION: The project site is situated in southeastern Atlanta (Fulton County, Georgia) with the objective of alleviating flooding that commonly occurs at the Cellairis Amphitheater and the surrounding Lakewood Park by completing design and subsequent construction of appropriate stormwater improvements. While a variety of stormwater/infrastructure improvements have been contemplated to date (ranging from draining of the Lakewood Fairgrounds Lake, culvert improvements/replacements, bank improvements, sanitary protection along the North Fork of the South River, and installation of flood protection structures such as berms, floodwalls, conveyance) through previous hydraulic and hydrology studies (performed by others), USACE will work with the City of Atlanta (the project’s non-federal sponsor) to finalize a design for construction of the selected environmental infrastructure improvements that meets the project objective and can be constructed within the project budget. Current expectations are design will be completed in FY24 and construction will begin in FY25. Project will be cost shared 75% federal / 25% non-federal and requires a cost share agreement.
SCHEDULED ACTIVITIES FOR FY 2023 Execute the PPA for design and construction; complete NEPA review and contract with an A/E firm for design services.
