At Environmental Remediation Contractor, we specialize in stream and river restoration services to restore the natural state and functionality of aquatic ecosystems. Our comprehensive approach supports biodiversity, recreation, flood management, and landscape development, ultimately enhancing the health and vitality of water resources in your community.
Our Stream and River Restoration Services
Our expert team at Environmental Remediation Contractor employs a variety of techniques to restore the natural balance and function of streams and rivers. These techniques aim to expand habitats for diverse species such as fish, aquatic insects, and other wildlife while reducing stream bank erosion and improving water quality. By reducing pollutant levels and increasing dissolved oxygen levels, we help achieve a self-sustaining, functional flow regime in the stream system that does not require periodic human intervention, such as dredging or construction of flood control structures.
Some of the techniques we utilize in our stream and river restoration projects include:
- Channel Modification: We reshape and restructure the stream or river channel to restore its natural flow and stability, promoting a healthy aquatic ecosystem.
- Cross Vanes and J-Hooks: These structures are installed to direct water flow, reduce erosion, and create diverse habitats for aquatic species.
- Imbricated Riprap: We use carefully placed rocks to stabilize stream banks, reduce erosion, and protect the surrounding ecosystem.
- Step Pools: Our team creates a series of shallow, terraced pools to slow water flow and improve habitat diversity, providing a more stable environment for aquatic life.
- Installation and Planting of Root Wads, Brush Layering, Live Branches, Live Stakes, Bare Roots, Shrubs, and Trees: We incorporate various bioengineering techniques to stabilize stream banks and promote the growth of native vegetation, enhancing both the aesthetic and ecological value of the restored area.
