Tasks to be performed in order to achieve project goals include reshaping of existing channels; re-establishment of new channels with stable dimensions;

construction of in-stream structures; preparation of soil for seeding; native planting and seeding;

installation of erosion control fabric and mulch; and harvesting, transporting, installation, and maintaining live stake, container tree, and vegetative materials. The restoration project involves re-establishment of ~2,188 feet of channel and rehabilitation of ~437 feet of channel. The restoration project also involves riparian enhancement of ~5,894 feet of channel. Restoration will include channel and floodplain habitat and armoring structures such as riffles, buried rock grade control, log vanes, half log vanes, staggered log chutes, bioengineered armoring, bioengineered bank armoring, rock/jam channel, Class III bed augmentation, floodplain swales, brush windrows, and floodplain brush vanes. Additionally, restoration will include agricultural tile drain removal and invasive species management as well as vegetation of the stream banks and wetland and establishment of a forested riparian corridor along the streams.
