This was the first phase of projects along the river for the Roanoke River Basin Flood Reduction Program. The project consisted of clearing and grubbing, erosion and sediment control along with the excavation and disposal of surplus material required to establish bench areas along the Roanoke River. This work also included removal of contaminated soils, demolition of several structures, storage tanks and buildings and the construction of an extension to a walking trail along the river.
