# NRCS Presents Wake County Dam Options

USDA’s Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) and Wake County-area sponsors will present rehabilitation alternatives for Dams No. 11A on Richland Creek and No. 22B on Hare Snipe Creek at a public meeting on November 4, 2026, at 6 p.m. at Lake Lynn Community Center in Raleigh, North Carolina. The alternatives include no action, dam removal, structural rehabilitation, and nonstructural measures, and the meeting will gather public input. Federal funding has supported planning, but funding for design or construction has not been secured, so this is an early-stage project signal—not an active solicitation.

- Engineering, environmental, and construction firms can use the meeting to understand the alternatives under consideration and the project’s planning status; there is not yet a funded design or construction opportunity to pursue.
- Procurement teams should distinguish the federally supported planning work from future implementation: design and construction funding remains unsecured.
- The meeting is November 4, 2026. Requests for accommodations are due to NRCS by November 3, 2026; the listed contacts can provide meeting information and accommodation assistance.
