North Nashua River Channel Improvement, Fitchburg, Massachusetts
The proposed project is on the North Nashua River near Fitchburg, Massachusetts and extends with the river for a distance of about five miles. About 1937, work was done under a Work Relief Project to improve conditions in that reach of the river, and consisted mainly of installation of cribs and walls, and placement of grouted rip-rap, works which, over the years, have deteriorated extensively. This project proposes rehabilitation and/or reconstruction of those walls, cribs and grouted rip-rap. In addition, new work will be accomplished consisting of channel excavation for a distance of about 2,600 feet (about 20,000 cubic yards), and removal of channel obstructions and depositions. Rehabilitation and/or reconstruction of the extensively deteriorated cribs and walls and related facilities will improve the physical appearance of this urban area as well as control river flow. No adverse effects are anticipated.
