Document Description
This project has been proposed to remedy existing Fish and Game Code violations by addressing sediment inputs at two existing ford stream crossings. This project proposes to: 1) decommission an existing crossing on Willow Gulch, restoring the stream banks by re-stabilizing the streambank through recontouring existing road cuts and revegetating with native species, and 2) replace an existing ford crossing on an unnamed stream, with an appropriately designed rock armored ford, to meet 100-year flow criteria and minimize sediment inputs.
