This grant from the Colorado River Indian Tribes (CRIT) is for the critical restoration and stabilization of the Aha Quin Resort’s access channel. Originally dredged by Reclamation after a 1983 river overflow, the backwater conveyance channel and its culvert, vital for water access, are now severely sediment-plugged and failing. This deterioration threatens crucial access to the Hall Island area, where CRIT maintains numerous essential facilities, including an airstrip, storage units, a boat launch, fuel stations, a restaurant, and a community park. The purpose of this grant is to replace the failing culvert and clear the channel, ensuring continued, unobstructed access to these vital tribal operations and maintaining the integrity of the riverbank.

| Description: | The Aha Quin Resort, located along the Colorado River, is owned and operated by CRIT. In 1983 the Colorado River overflowed its banks and changed course at Aha Quin. As a result, Reclamation dredged a channel from the River to the Aha Quin Resort to restore water access to residents in this area as part of the Parker II Mitigation plan. As a means to provide sufficient river flows to the backwater channel, Reclamation installed a backwater conveyance channel and culvert. Since initial installation of these features, they have become severely sediment plugged and are now nearing failure. As the Tribe maintains numerous buildings and business operations in the Hall Island area, |
