Oxbow River and Stream Restoration, Inc. constructed this relocated stream channel to meet the client's goals and strict restoration guidelines. We partnered with prime engineering consultant EMH&T on channel design for this unnamed tributary to Dysart Run.

Site constraints included location next to a major thoroughfare, limited corridor to accommodate channel sinuousity, established inlet and outlet elevations, two road culverts, and heavy clay soil. oxbow worked within the developer's timeframe, coordinating around other subcontractors.

This project met the client's goals by restoring 2,200 feet of relocated stream channel, developing a stable, attractive, low-maintenance channel that met mitigation requirements while effectively conveying stormwater. oxbow's experience and attention to detail maximize the potential for meeting the client's needs while restoring an ecologically functional stream ecosystem.
