Document Description
The proposed project includes constructing a native plant vegetated; soil filled Green Terramesh system retaining wall. The Green Terramesh system will cover an area of about 39 feet long x 10 feet high (approximately 390 square feet) at a 1V:1H foot slope; the foundation of this structure will cover an area of 48 feet long x 4 feet high. The Terramesh structure will be tied into the existing upstream and downstream banks. The top third of the structure will be planted with native species including bay laurel, snowberry and other appropriate species and backfilled with local native alluvium and top soil and further vegetated with live willow poles. The applicants plan to remove the existing upstream root wad and reutilize the root wad downstream in the toe of the bank to enhance instream habitat. The applicants expect to de-water the area within the vicinity of the project. The California Department of Fish and Game is executing a Lake and Streambed Alteration Agreement number 1600-2007-0119-3 pursuant to Section 1602 of the Fish and Game Code.
