Project Description:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

State of Florida to join with Manatee County, City of

Bradenton, and Federal government to address flood control

problem around Wares Creek in central part of County. 

This project is to be performed in conjunction with and

as a component of the greater Wares Creek Flood Control

Project to remove excessive sedimentation occurring below

mean high tide at the mouth of Wares Creek.  These

accumulated sediments impede flood flow creating

upstream flooding.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Measurable Outcome Anticipated:

 

 

 

 

 

Estimated average annual flood damages within incorporated

Manatee County and the City of Bradenton without the

project are $6,700,000.  Annual flood damages with the

project are reduced to $2,860,000, yielding a federal

benefit/cost ration of greater than 3.3:1, 2,684 structures

are impacted during the 10-year storm event without the

project with estimated damages exceeding $22 million.
