1 Stream Restoration: Working with Nature? Greg Jennings, PhD, PE Ecosystem Restoration activities that initiate or accelerate the recovery of ecosystem health, integrity, and sustainability (SER, 2004) Why Restoration? Water quality impairments Habitat loss Ecosystem degradation Land loss Safety concerns Infrastructure damage Flooding Aesthetics 1
2 Stream Impairments Straightening & dredging Floodplain filling Watershed manipulation Sedimentation & stormwater Pollution discharges Utilities & culverts Buffer removal Disdain & neglect Outcomes of Ecosystem Restoration Habitats & water quality Natural flow regimes Recreation & aesthetics Public enthusiasm 2

Access, Land Availability, Utilities? Feasibility? Will it Work? Constructability? Equipment, Materials, Time/$? Stream Restoration Goals: What do people need, want, expect? Safe, abundant water Recreation Aesthetics Flood control Valuable land Healthy economy 4

9 Project Goals Restore natural stream functions & services Reduce stormwater impacts to stream health Educate watershed stakeholders about stream health and stormwater management Project Specs 1,900 feet stream length feet riparian buffer 0.5 acre stormwater wetland 10 stormwater outfall channels Sewer crossing Greenway trail on East bank Gravel/cobble high bedload Project Components 1. Channel morphology 2. Floodplain structure 3. Hydrologic & hydraulic analysis 4. In-stream structures 5. Habitats & vegetation 6. Site & watershed conditions 7. Monitoring, maintenance, education 9
10 Priority 3: Excavate narrow floodplain benches in confined corridor ER = 1.6 W/d = 19 K = 1.2 R c /W = 2-3 Construction: Jan-Mar, 2010 How to Reduce Stream Erosion 1. Reduce flow velocity and depth: Floodplains to spread flow & reduce depth Roughness to slow velocity Vanes to re-direct flow from banks 2. Strengthen soil to resist erosion: Grading to stable slope to prevent slumping Temporary matting to cover soil Dense native plants for soil strength Entrenchment Ratio = W fpa / W bkf = 60/38 = 1.6 Width to depth Ratio = W bkf / d bkf = 38/2 = 19 10
11 Entrenchment Ratio = W fpa / W bkf = 60/38 = 1.6 In-Stream Structures (11): Boulder & Log Grade Control Bank Protection Sediment Transport Habitat Enhancement Boulder Vanes (J-hooks) 3-6 % arm slopes degree arm angles Boulder footers & non-woven geotextile 0.5 ft drops over j-hook inverts 11

15 Is the Project Achieving Goals? Streambank erosion eliminated Floodplain & wetlands functioning Vegetation, water quality, & habitats improving Public understanding enhanced The Value of Demonstration: Shades Creek Samford University 1,000 ft enhancement 3 workshops Construction: January 2011 Shades Creek Enhancement: 2011 March 2011 September
