    This memorandum outlines the geotechnical evaluation and recommendations for replacing the destroyed Salt Creek Interpretive Trail boardwalk in Death Valley National Park, California. Severe flooding in August 2022 and the remnants of Hurricane Hilary in 2023 resulted in extensive damage, prompting the need for reconstruction. The project focuses on replacing the boardwalk with a helical pile foundation system, designed to withstand environmental challenges, including extreme temperatures and corrosive soils containing evaporitic salts. Key measures include acquiring new survey data, revising design alignments to avoid sensitive areas, and comprehensive considerations for ADA accessibility. An analysis of the site also assessed geological and seismic factors affecting construction. The findings highlight the importance of adopting appropriate foundation design to address scour, lateral resistance, and environmental impacts. Overall, this project represents a collaborative effort among federal agencies, aiming to restore visitor access and protect endangered habitats while ensuring safety and structural integrity.
    The document outlines the Salt Creek Interpretive Trail project (CA ERFO NP DEVA 2022-1(2)), managed by the Central Federal Lands Highway Division of the Federal Highway Administration, in partnership with the National Park Service. It includes specifications for the construction of roadways, bridges, and trails, emphasizing flood damage repairs and debris removal. Key requirements involve proper alignment and cross-section dimensions expressed in U.S. customary units, focusing on slope design guidelines. The project plans entail detailed cross-sectional analyses that determine the roadway's elevations and grades to ensure structural integrity and safety under federal guidelines. The completion timeline indicates progress through June and July 2024, with extensive surveying and design details provided for project management. This initiative illustrates the federal commitment to maintaining transportation infrastructure in national parks, ensuring access while preserving environmental standards.
    The Salt Creek Interpretive Trail Final Hydraulics Report details the hydrologic and hydraulic analysis for the replacement of the boardwalk at Death Valley National Park, which was destroyed by flash floods in 2022. The report evaluates the trail's alignment, design criteria, and response to storm events, particularly the 2022 and 2023 floods. Hydraulic analysis was performed using the SRH-2D modeling software, focusing on ensuring that the boardwalk can accommodate flood flows without pressure flow up to the 25-year storm event. Scour evaluations determined that the design must withstand specific storm events (50-year and 100-year) for both the boardwalk and adjoining embankment protections. Recommendations include a comprehensive sediment transport model to anticipate erosion and local scour at helical pile locations. The report serves to fulfill federal requirements under the Emergency Relief for Federally Owned Roads (ERFO) program while emphasizing the importance of sustainable infrastructure to enhance visitor experiences and protect natural habitat. This project aligns with broader federal and state objectives to restore and maintain public access to significant environmental resources.
