Board approves $3,500 MRI proposal to widen E3 Basin control structure to improve outflow
Summary
The board approved MRI Construction Proposal #606 to widen the E3 Basin control structure weir to the maximum width to improve drainage capacity; the engineer will provide before-and-after photos and investigate installing a manual gate.
The River Ridge CDD voted to approve MRI Construction Proposal #606, in the amount of $3,500, to widen the opening on the E3 Basin control structure to increase outflow capacity.
"The current control structure going out to the Florida Power & Light easement is slightly shy of the maximum width and the proposal entails MRI using a concrete saw to widen the weir width to the maximum to get the most water out of the community," said Charlie Krebs, District Engineer. Assistant Secretary Kurt Blumenthal moved to approve the proposal; Chair Bob Schultz seconded the motion and it passed with all in favor.
Krebs said he will provide before-and-after photographs and send project details and specifications to the board, and he will inquire about installing a manual gate near the control structure. The work is intended to improve drainage performance; the bid is a discrete, small-scale construction change approved for immediate implementation.
