Document Description
The Huff’s Corner In-Channel Repair Project involves remedial actions to restore a streambank to similar conditions after an in-channel reconfiguration project was completed in the location in December 2022. The newly constructed streambank was damaged shortly after project completion by the creek flows that resulted from heavy 2022-2023 winter storms. The original actions were a component of the Huff’s Corner In-Channel Reconfiguration and Levee Raise Project, for which a Mitigation Negative Declaration was prepared (SCH #2021050214). The repair work includes excavation of creek gravels from the left (north) side of the channel; filling of those gravels into eroded areas on the right (south) side of the channel where the embankment/terrace was built; and stabilization of the new fill by installing additional rock, erosional control fabric, soil, and revegetation.
