When should you fix a stream???? Let’s look closer at this one

Susquehanna River with Interstate 88 at top of slope

McKinstry Creek existing planform, three bends and 2 crossings over 540 ft of length. Only one good habitat pool. Note 300 ft long straight stretch.

McKinstry Creek near Delevan, NY, 5-18-2006, flow left to right New channel planform (blue line)

(Elton Creek, Freedom, NY) Looking DS, Elton Creek, Freedom, NY. Floodplain on both sides has been filled, stream straightened. At 30 ft wide no habitat pools, when stream is 20 ft wide 2 ft deep pools with 40-50 trout per pool!! What should we do??? (Elton Creek, Freedom, NY) Looking Downstream Photo by Maureen Mayer

What do we do here???? (North Carolina)

What about here?? (North Carolina)

What about this stream?? (West Virginia)

Same Stream (West Virginia) Straightened Incised Over - widened Very little pool-riffle-pool Very little wood in stream or high quality aquatic habitat (cover, depth, etc) Single row of ageing veg as riparian corridor Same Stream (West Virginia)

Same Stream (West Virginia) Lots of room in the valley

Abandon channel, start fresh!! Transform old channel into connected wetland cells Abandon channel, start fresh!! Use dirt from new channel to create wetland cells in old channel (maximize diversity) Use some old veg for LWD in new channel Plant all riparian areas (shade, wildlife, pollinators) Maximize all stream functions New stream channel with all bells & whistles

Active headcut. Do which first, bank stabilization Active headcut. Do which first, bank stabilization? Or grade stabilization????

This is where the headcut has been

Stream cutting into a tall unstable bank

Bob’s Creek. Where to start??

House here What about this one??

In stream restoration “you have to have that brain thing going on !!

QUESTIONS????
