The first phase of the Kilpatrick/Purdy Pond
Stream Enhancement Restoration Project will begin this week with
dredging at the Purdy Pond. The Nature Conservancy, RR Ranch and Golden
Enviro ask that the public respect the “Hard Hat” restrictions in the
area and do not enter the construction area. Any questions you may have
can be directed to the Nature Conservancy (208) 720-5465 or RR Ranch.
The
dredging portion of the project is scheduled to last about 3 to 4 weeks
with the construction of a new dam and wetland areas to follow. Strict
guidelines and permit requirements will require the contractors, RR
Ranch and Nature Conservancy to monitor the area on a regular basis.
Phase two of the project is scheduled to begin next year. We will have
updates as they are made available.
Learn more about the project and how you can contribute at: the Kilpatrick Pond Project webpage.
