Description

The Tucson Drainage Area Project consists of construction of the Park Avenue Basins. The four basins include three inline basins called Basins 1, 2 and 3, and an offline basin called Tucson Unified School District (TUSD) Basin. Basins 1, 2 and 3 ar e connected via drainage structures that pass low flows. The TUSD Basin includes a weir located in Arroyo Chico Channel at the Railroad Wash confluence. It will drain through a 36-in. pipe into Basin 3. At the location of the TUSD Basin, the existing at hletic fields and appurtenant facilities will be demolished and new fields will be constructed at the bottom of the basin and a new locker room/classroom/snack bar building, new parking lot, new maintenance building, new field lights, new dug outs, back st ops, batting cage, and built-in bleachers will also be constructed within the basin and its periphery. The project also consists of modifying the inlet on High School Wash at Park Avenue. An existing triple box, consisting of a double 7-ft by 4-ft and a single 6-ft by 4-ft RCB crossing Fourth Avenue would be removed and a new double 10-ft by 8-ft RCB would be constructed beneath Fourth Avenue to Eighth Street, where it would confluence with the existing Tucson Arroyo RCB. Channel modifications consist of overexcavating by four feet of an existing channel starting from Parkway Terrace to Campbell Avenue. The channel would be lined with gunite along the invert and the lower four feet (vertical) of side slopes, and backfilled with soil. The upper side slop es would be lined with articulated block. The fully entrenched channel would have a 22-foot bottom width, a depth of 8-feet, and 1:1 side slopes. The existing dip crossings at Norris, Olsen and Plumer Avenues would be lowered to match the new invert elev ations. The Campbell Avenue crossing would replace a four-barreled 4-ft by 10-ft RCB with a six-barreled 4-ft by 12-ft RCB. An existing sewer line would be relocated in order to maintain the current elevation. An existing side drain entering Arroyo Chic o under Campbell Avenue will have to be relocated within the new box. Five grade control structures would be constructed in the unlined channel reaches. The structures will be constructed of grouted stone, with a top width of 6-feet, a depth of 6-feet, a nd a downstream 15-foot-long section filled with riprap.
