Document Description
The Iris Canyon Creek Reparation Project will improve a 1,750 ft. stretch of creek adjacent to Iris Canyon Road. Iris Canyon Creek drains into approximately 150 acres of land. The Creek has cut a channel reaching a depth of over 12 feet with vertical unstable walls that are close to Iris Canyon Road and are undermining nearby tree roots. The project includes installing five log drop structures, grading 1,640 feet of each side of the creek's banks to a reduced slope using engineered fill as required, placing grouted rock protection according to the plans, installing earth-retaining systems and flexible channel lining, and planting the slopes with native trees and shrubs. The series of grade control structures will maintain a reduced slope and prevent further erosion along the creek. The earth-retaining structures will insure that all Monterey Pines are saved and also will protect the road from washing out in a storm. Through grading, the project estimated cut is 1,300 cubic meters and the required fill will be 720 cubic meters recycling the soil when possible. The project result will be a stable creek accessible to native wildlife.
