Plug a side channel of Keeler Creek because the road is at risk of washout. The work would armor the head end of the channel against bankfull and higher runoff events to minimize erosive flow down the channel and towards the road.
Location
The project site is located in Lincoln County, Montana in Section 30, T30N, R35W, approximately 5.5 miles up the unpaved portion of NFSR 473 at the junction with NFSR 404.
