The Canal Corporation has completed the stump removal and backfill on the slopes in the Brockport area. The project engineers will be returning to complete required embankment widenings. One such section is between the Brockport Guard Gate and Smith Street, or Site 34. This will involve widening the slope from the Evergreen Park east. A sand filter system will be installed on the first 150 feet of the slope next to the park to help drain the suspected seep in that area. An underdrain system and monitoring manhole will also be installed.
This work is expected to begin sometime the week of March 25.
