The proposed project is located in Sections 18, 19, and 30, Township 12 North, Range 4 West, Oklahoma County, Oklahoma. The project site can be found on the Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 7.5 Minute USGS Quadrangle map at North Latitude 35.4974 and West Longitude -97.6670.

The overall purpose is to correct extensive bank erosion along this constructed bypass channel. The project is not a water dependent activity. The basic purpose and need of the proposed action is to conduct bank stabilization along the entire reach of the bypass channel.

The applicant proposes the placement of dredged and fill material consisting of red shale composed of silt and clay for back fill and rock riprap materials for bank stabilization along 10,500 LF of the left descending bank of the North Canadian River bypass channel. The red shale would be acquired from an existing borrow site at Draper Lake and the rock riprap would come from a local quarry. The project would require the use of various conventional earth moving equipment for construction and excavation. The material would be placed along the left descending bank using a long reach excavator from the top of bank.
