  19. KEY Tieback/key- 1.0 ton/ft LPSTP- 0.5 ton/ft LPSTP- 1.0 ton/ft Top bank Traffic Control Stones Bendway Weirs 1.0 ton/ft Flow Bend 1

  20. SELF-ADJUSTING, SELF-FILTERING STONE Original cross-section, note angle of repose 1:1.5 to 1:1.25 Reduced height of protection Undercut & launched, original height of protection is reduced Undercut angle of repose is steeper than original

  21. Constructed terraces with specific species vegetation (or combos) on each bench Live Siltation (willow) Backfill Original bank LPSTP Longitudinal Peaked Stone Toe Protection (LPSTP)Constructed of a well-graded, self-adjusting, self-filtering stone (no filter fabric underlayment)

  32. We talked the Pennington sales rep out of 4 bags of “Pennington SLOPEMASTER Mix” grass seed. This seed worked well in our application. Extreme upper bank was not as lush or robust as other areas. Possibly a lack of moisture issue? GOODWIN CREEK–CONSTRUCTION-FEB 28, 2007–DANNY KLIMETZ
