City of Conway lets nature take the lead to address flooding issue
Conway embarks on flood control project By Zach Wilcox | December 23, 2020 at 10:25 PM EST - Updated December 23 at 10:25 PM
CONWAY, S.C. (WMBF) - The City of Conway is working on a way to cut down on flooding in future hurricane seasons.
The city council approved a project to build a Carolina Bay in one frequently-flooded area.
Carolina Bays are naturally-made, perfectly round or slightly egg-shaped depressions in this area of the country that naturally control flooding around them.
The city is embarking on a project to make, as far as they know, the first man-made Carolina Bay, with the hope that nature will do its part to control flooding.
City of Conway officials believe their $2 million multiyear project, designed to reduce flooding in the area near Trinity United Methodist Church, could become a model for other communities.
Conway City Council voted recently to move ahead with the project that city officials have whittled down from an estimated $2.4 million to somewhere in the neighborhood of $2 million, according to Deputy City Administrator/Grants Coordinator John Rogers.
At a recent meeting, council members voted unanimously to seek a grant from the Building Resilient Infrastructure in Communities (BRIC) program to allow engineers, Robinson Design Engineers, (RDE) to complete its plan designed to mimic a Carolina Bay, the naturally-occurring elliptical depressions that sometimes include rare foliage and help prevent flooding.
