Current Activity
Posted Tuesday, June 18
The design plans for this project
are complete. We also received all
required environmental permits
from U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers, North Carolina
Department of Environment and
Natural Resources (NCDENR), and
North Carolina Dam Safety.
We are coordinating with property
owners to secure easements that
are required to construct and
maintain the project. We also
selected DLB Enterprises as the
construction contractor for the
project. More construction details
will be available in July.
Summary
White Oak Lake is a privately
owned lake that provides little
reduction to peak flows for the
downstream Simmons Branch
watershed. However, retrofit
improvements to increase the
lake’s ability to store stormwater
runoff will reduce flooding in the
downstream watershed that
currently experiences fairly
frequent flooding of roads, yards,
garages, crawl spaces, and HVAC
units.
