Project Description

This project focused on the restoration of a seepage wetland ecosystem. It involved filling a severely eroded channel, installing rock and riffle grade control structures, and establishing a native plant community in the channel’s riparian zones. The project also utilizes innovative stream restoration techniques such as a “bubbler” to attenuate discharge energy and increase the flow path, thereby allowing a greater treatment area.
