~ The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Albuquerque District (USACE), has released a draft Integrated Feasibility Report & Environmental Assessment (IFR-EA) for an upcoming ecosystem restoration project in Colorado Springs, Colorado. The project, titled Spring Creek Aquatic Ecosystem Restoration, aims to revamp the Spring Creek corridor and improve the stream-riparian zone function.

The draft IFR-EA evaluates various alternatives to ensure that the management of natural, cultural, and socioeconomic resources within the project area complies with all applicable environmental laws and regulations. The preferred plan includes measures such as slope stabilization, in-stream structures, and vegetation plantings.
