Clients:Â Applied EarthWorks, US Army Corps of Engineers
SBS restoration ecologists were the lead native vegetation design team in a multi-party team headed by Applied EarthWorks, Inc. Our staff worked in support of the US Army Corps of Engineers’ proposed riparian enhancement projects along three reservoirs on the Lower Snake River. SBS staff analyzed site conditions at Habitat Management Units, and designed a range of planting alternatives and restoration strategies at numerous sites along the project corridor. Final deliverables included GIS-generated planting polygon design maps, and associated tables of planting schedules, native species, quantities, and spacing. SBS ecologists provided our clients with a thorough report and project plan to address anticipated challenges and associated strategies, site specific descriptions of current conditions and revegetation approaches, as well as monitoring approaches to measure success.
