Summary
- Stabilized 400 feet of highly eroding streambank and reduced ongoing land loss.
- Moved the channel, added a floodplain bench, and installed grade control structures.
Project Description
Completed an approximately 400ft streambank stabilization project along a highly unstable section of Brush Creek near Goshen, AR. The landowner was losing several feet of land every year due to streambank erosion. The project involved moving the channel away from the eroding streambank and installing toe-wood and a floodplain bench. Several rock grade control structures were installed to provide grade control and prevent channel downcutting. Natural Channel Design techniques were used to develop the proper channel pattern and dimensions along with creating floodplains to reduce sheer stress during high flow events.
