Abstract:This project included a thorough review of scientific literature related to stream restoration techniques and practices in addition to development of a design handbook. Literature review topics included fluvial processes, bioengineering, natural channel design, habitat improvement structures, stream stability, and sediment transport. An annotated bibliography of the relevant stream restoration literature was posted to the NCSU Water Quality Group Web Site at: http://h2osparc.wq.ncsu.edu/biblio/ The document “Stream Restoration: A Natural Channel Design Handbook” was prepared and distributed to 35 NCDOT participants in a 4-day workshop held in Raleigh, NC, January 22-26, 2001. The Handbook includes detailed descriptions of successful current and proven stream restoration practices integrated into a usable and reliable cost-effective process for NCDOT. Chapter 11 in the Handbook is a comprehensive process to support evaluation of successful stream restoration.
