Most of the money will go toward debris removal and repairs to city infrastructure, but $150,000 will go toward studying ways to prevent catastrophic flooding in the future.
Water continues to rose along the Mendenhall River during Juneau ’s annual glacial outburst flood on Monday, Aug. 5, 2024.
By creating a bore hole through the mountains, it may be possible to proactively drain water into Nugget Creek. It was also suggested that the basin could be filled in with rock, so that it would not collect water in the first place. Both the basin and the lake are on U.S. Forest Service land, so any modifications to them would be subject to federal permitting processes. And all of these options would have multi-million-dollar budgets which would likely require federal funding to cover.“If we want to see measurable action, something that works towards the goal of prevention and mitigation by next year, that is something that can only be done via political mandate, really at the congressional, federal level,” he said.
“I just worry that we are setting false expectations for our community members who are going to have to be making decisions soon about what to do about their properties,” she said. “I’d like to be proven wrong that there’s a solution out there, but my gut tells me there isn’t, on any timeline before the system changes completely.”
