DESCRIPTION
This project developed prelminary designs for the Skinney Creek stream restoration project. Railroad construction and subsequent construction of Highway 2 re-aligned Skinney Creek into its current channel configuration. The lower 2,000 feet of Skinney Creek is narrow and confined between two remnant berms or levees. This design project developed conceptual and preliminary designs to re-construct the stream channel into its former floodplain area.
