This project restored 1,080 feet of a headwater tributary on the James Madison University Campus. The project design used an innovative approach to restoration, creating a stream-wetland complex complimented by considerable riparian and wetland plantings of native species chosen for their ability to create habitat, provide a food source, provide educational opportunities, and harmoniously exist in the setting. To limit the project footprint, the project design minimized grading, reduced tree removal, made use of onsite materials.
