Recommended project includes a flood control system consisting of two detention basin complexes, 4 detention basin complexes which require an environmental restoration study and limited capacity improvements. The project consists of flood control and ecosystem restoration which measures within the approximate 12-square mile of Tucson Arroyo/Arroyo Chico watershed in the City of Tucson located in Pima County, Arizona. Recommended plan consists of two detention basin complexes. One referred to as the Randolph Golf Course Detention Basin complex (upstream on Arroyo Chico in the headwaters of the drainage), and the second referred to as the Park Avenue Basin complex (in the approx. center of the watershed). The local sponsor pursued and was granted consideration of the 104 credits in advance of completion of the feasibility phase. The Randolph Detention Basin complex was completed in May 1996.
