- Extensive sediment & erosion control features installed on river bank, including excavator boulder placement, seeded geotextile, live stake bioengineering, and both marsh bench and upslope riparian outplantings
- Pioneering native species used in slope stabilization were harvested <10kms from site to preserve seed provenance
