Environmental Services, Inc. implemented construction during January 2001 for 1,300 feet of a natural channel design located in a highly urbanized area of Greenville, South Carolina. The purpose of the proposed stream mitigation plan was to restore and stabilize approximately 1,300 feet of a degraded sand bed stream channel of Long Branch Creek. ESI provided project oversight, including scheduling and deployment, implementation of BMPs, and purchase of plant material and erosion control blankets (ECBs). ESI provided construction management including pre-construction stake-out of the plan form, supervised and directed excavation and grading, installation of plant material and ECBs, and site clean-up after construction was completed. The project included in-stream structure installation, bankfull benches, streambank stabilization, and riparian vegetation planting and management.
