URBAN PLAINS MEANDERING STREAM
Fargo, North DakotaAbout the Project
The Urban Plains complex was constructed in 2008 and created a network surface water feature that could be utilized for recreational activities. Allowing recreational activities to occur on the ponds (i.e., kayaking and paddle boarding) required the system to include water quality treatment.After operating as designed for over five years, surface water started draining from the system and the main ponds are unable to maintain the designed normal water level.
