Strandley Manning - Recreated Stream Channel
Based on results of investigations, approximately 3500 cubic yards of sediment and soil were removed, and the excavated areas were backfilled with clean material and graded. The primary goal of habitat restoration at the site was to provide fish habitat that combines favorable physical (pools, riffles, spawning areas) and biological environments (food sources, cover, shade, organic material), which will encourage fish to populate the stream. As part of this restoration effort the stream channel was recreated, its banks stabilized, and instream structures were placed to create fish habitat.
