Upper Camelback Wash Drainage Improvement Project

Conveyance capacity of the existing system of open channels and street conveyance is limited to a 2-year event level in some areas, creating a flood hazard for an estimated 600 structures. The proposed project will improve system capacity to provide protection for the 100-year storm event.

Construction is starting in July 2012 and will continue until mid 2014. The City of Scottsdale is the lead agency for construction.
