Critical stream reaches were identified 14 major environmental perturbations
affecting water quality, aquatic biota and aesthetics were also identified and ranked
The City and the Sager Creek Advisory Commission used the management plan to initiate efforts to improve Sager Creek

Project GoalProject Goal
The goal of this project was to construct a regional treatment feature in upper Sager Creek that will reduce peak flow, sediment and nutrient transport in the stream system during storm flow events.

Intended OutcomeIntended Outcome
The project was anticipated to result in a system level reduction in sediment and nutrient loading and provide channel protection resulting from the decrease in peak flows.

Measured ResultsMeasured Results
Sediment (TSS), nitrate and phosphorus loading has been shown by the monitoring to have decreased by as much as 57%.
Downstream flow during storm events has been reduced as much as 55% by the active detention of water in the SC-1 system and the low flow release structure.

Communicate needs and concerns to team..….. to ensure the outcome is what is needed and/or expected.
More time for monitoring post construction. This will help prove the full pollutant reduction potential the treatment feature can attain.
