The "Repair Storm Damage at Mora Road (95% Design)" project involves comprehensive engineering analyses for boulder sizing, riprap sizing, scour, and large wood structure stability. The boulder sizing calculations, utilizing HRB and USBR methods, ensure stability for fish passage boulders under 100-year peak flow conditions. Riprap sizing, based on USACE and USBR criteria, determines material gradation for embankment and existing riprap. Scour calculations, employing FHWA and NRCS methods, estimate general, pier, abutment, and bend scour for various structures. Finally, large wood stability calculations for large deflectors and deflectors assess factors of safety against sliding, buoyancy, rotation, and overturning, ensuring structural integrity under high flow conditions. The overall objective is to ensure the stability and functionality of proposed and existing structures for storm damage repair.
Tetra Tech Inc. submitted a Geotechnical Design Memorandum to Quileute Natural Resources and the Federal Highway Administration to support the Mora Road storm damage repair project in Clallam County, Washington. The project involves installing temporary riprap and large woody debris structures along 250 feet of riverbank at Mile Post 1.25 on Mora Road. The memorandum presents results from literature and map reviews, field investigations, and laboratory tests, and provides recommendations for design parameters. Previous investigations in 2020 for a flood berm indicated native fine-grained and coarse-grained soils. The area's surface geology consists of late Pleistocene alluvial deposits, with subsurface bedrock primarily of sedimentary sandstone. The site is in a seismically active zone with moderate to high liquefaction susceptibility and is located in a tsunami hazard area. Geotechnical borings conducted in February 2024 revealed subsurface stratigraphy including pavement, subbase, poorly graded sand and gravel, and silt layers. Groundwater was encountered at depths ranging from 11.2 to 28.1 feet below the ground surface. The document concludes with recommended soil properties for slope stability analyses, crucial for the project's engineering design.
Tetra Tech, Inc. prepared a 100 Percent Design Hydraulic Memorandum for the Repair Storm Damage at Mora Road Project, requested by the Federal Highway Administration, Olympic National Park Service, and Quileute Natural Resources. The project addresses erosion risks along Mora Road, a critical access route, and aims to restore degraded fish habitat. The design, developed in stages from conceptual to 100 percent, incorporates updated LiDAR data, hydrology, and engineering analyses. It proposes large wood structures with riprap and scour countermeasures, designed for a 25-year lifespan. Engineering analyses cover hydrology, hydraulic modeling, geotechnical investigation, boulder and riprap sizing, scour calculations, and large wood structure stability, including buoyancy, sliding, rotation, and overturning. The estimated cost is $4,854,798, with construction planned between July 15 and September 30, recommending full road closure for efficiency.
