Stream Restoration Framework
The Stream Restoration Framework is a structured approach to improve and protect streams and their surrounding ecosystems. It involves assessing the current condition of the stream, identifying issues like erosion, pollution, or habitat loss, and then designing projects to restore natural functions. This process includes planning, implementing techniques such as re-vegetation or streambank stabilization, and monitoring progress. The goal is to enhance water quality, stabilize banks, support wildlife, and ensure the stream's health and sustainability for the future. It’s a comprehensive plan that combines science, engineering, and ecology to restore streams to a healthier state.
