Brehon Street Stormwater Improvements

Organization:

Town of Warrenton

Amount:

$196,447.50

Program Area:

Flood Mitigation Program

County of Applicant:

Warren

Year:

2023

Description:

The storm drain at the intersection of Brehon and Fairview Streets becomes blocked and overwhelmed by stormwater runoff during large unnamed storms, resulting in flooding of the street and three residential lots in the area. Golden LEAF flood mitigation grant funds will be used for engineering and construction costs associated with replacing approximately 190 feet of existing 24-inch vitrified clay pipe, clogged and damaged stormwater pipe, and two curb inlets with a new 48-inch corrugated plastic pipe. The new pipe will run from Brehon Street to an outlet at an unnamed tributary to Horse Creek. Households in the immediate project area will benefit from the completion of the project. The project will allow for greater stormwater flow another 300 yards upstream and benefit approximately a dozen more residential properties that are affected to a lesser degree. Once completed, the town’s operations and maintenance personnel will be responsible for maintaining the new stormwater pipe.
