Document Description
Floodplain restoration on a 0.36 acre portion of Deer Creek. The project will remove an artificial berm placed parallel to the stream channel of Deer Creek and allow for re-establishment of a normal flood regime for the associated floodplain. This will also allow for associated riparian areas to be re-established. The floodplain area will be graded initially to ensure waters recede following high flows. Existing riparian vegetation, including willows, disturbed during removal of the berm and regarding of the floodplain will be re-planted over the next three years and monitored for successful establishment.
