Executive Summary/Project Abstract

The channel has remained stable since construction. Previous areas of concern noted during the monitoring have stabilized or appear to be of no significant long term risk to the stability of the project. Vegetation has become well established throughout the project with the only concern being related to the establishment of multiflora rose (Rosa multiflora). Channel cross sections are consistent with previous measurements and appear stable. The channel bed in each of the monitoring reaches appears to have stabilized and is maintaining elevation and bedform throughout. Planform remains consistent with design conditions. The banks were well-covered with vegetation. Planted trees and shrubs are doing well throughout the buffer. Extrapolation from the eight plots resulted in an overall average of 981 planted woody stems per acre for this restoration site.
