Abstract
The DSWCD proposes to improve stream channel conditions (selected from approximately 130
stream miles) entirely on privately owned and managed lands by placing and securing tree
revetments along streambanks, removing invasive brush, and planting native vegetation along streambanks and riparian areas. Revetments are structures, such as clumps of Christmas trees,
secured to streambanks, positioned to catch sediment, and slow stream velocities. This would
improve overall stream conditions and water quality by adding structure to riparian systems. Tree
revetments are an effective method for landowners to prevent or control streambank erosion as part
of an overall riparian zone restoration process.
