Document Description
The proposed project consists of the restoration of a 300 foot portion of the seasonal tributary that would include restoring high flow capacity and bank stabilization. Restoring capacity will include increasing the size of two undersized culverts (a 36 inch and a 10 inch culvert) and widening a constricted portion of the bank. Secondly, a combination of native vegetation plantings will include 5 (1 Gal) Red Stem Dogwoods, 16 (1 Gal) California Wild Roses, 24 (1 Gal) California Honeysuckles and 13 (1Gal) Snowberry plantings arranged along both sides of the 300 foot section of the creek specified by the schematics submitted to the Regional Water Board. In addition to the aforementioned plantings the area will hydro-seeded with approximately 2,285 square feet of native grasses, as specified in the plans. Materials will be utilized to shore the banks and additional hydro-seeding will stabilize an adjacent upland hillside from which runoff enters. Biotechnical methods may include such measures as brush mattress, vegetative wall, and biodegradable erosion control blankets. Rip-rap or other bank hardening will be avoided in favor of aforementioned biotechnical stabilization methods.
