Based on the conclusions of the analysis, a broad range of treatments were prescribed and implemented. Recently installed treatment. Porous fence revetments designed to reduce bank failure. Porous fence revetments aided by bank sloping. The photo shows initial revegetation during first growing season following treatment installation.

Multiple elevated culvert array at crossing of wet meadow. The culvert spreads flow and decreases erosion energy, captures sediment upstream, reduces flood peaks, and prolongs baseflows. were used to affect flow regimes, channel stability, and water quality. Riparian plantings, riparian pastures, and beaver management programs were also established, and meander reestablishment and channel relocation were conducted. Additional attention was paid to improved road management practices, and unnecessary roads were closed. Results of the project have largely met its goals, and the watershed is more productive and enjoyable for a broad range of goods, services, and values.
