Watershed Restoration Program Restore Priority Meadows, Wetlands, and Lake Tahoe Tributaries
This proposal funds the third phase of the Blackwood Channel and Floodplain Restoration Project. This project abandons a 1/2 mile section of stream channel that was channelized as a result of past land uses associated with a gravel quarry, and restore flows to an adjacent remnant of historic channel that is still largely intact. In addition 7 acres adjacent to the historic channel will be reshaped and stabilized.
