DESCRIPTION
Short term actions in this segment include wood placements to increase channel complexity. In the long term strategy, opportunities should be explored to work with willing landowners on habitat enhancement, conservation easements, and/or property acquisitions to support dedication of the stream corridor for floodplain and riparian processes.
The floodplain upstream of David Road is relatively intact compared to the lower segment; however, the stream corridor is impaired from residential development set back only 60-80 ft from the channel and past clearing of the riparian forest.
