Sawhatchee Creek Sedimentation Abatement and Riparian Repair

In partnership with the Golden Triangle Resource Conservation and Development Council along with US Fish and Wildlife Service, this project will continue to work with farmers along Sawahatchee Creek to implement best management practices. Management measures include Stream and riparian stability, along with erosion protection and abatement — these practices will reduce soil loss and sedimentation from leeching into the watershed. This project will focus on a road/stream intersect riparian restoration, along a 1 (one) mile section of Sawhatchee Creek, with the goal to correct slope erosion and protect critical habitat for the federally listed mussel species.
