Don Morse Park: City of Chelan

Facet provided initial site evaluation, a restoration feasibility report, and shoreline conceptual layouts in support of the City of Chelan’s redevelopment and marina expansion at Don Morse Park. Facet staff developed a sampling and analysis plan for the dredge area and worked with the Corps to finalize a suitability determination for re-use of dredge spoils within the beach restoration area that included over 50,000 cubic yards of fill below the OHWM to cover an eroding bulkhead and recreate an expansive public beach area. Facet planners prepared application materials and coordinated all local, state, and federal permits, including USACE, Ecology, WDFW, and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.
