Title: Rural/Urban Stream Rehabilitation in Central Texas
Abstract: Friars Creek, located in Temple, Texas has been selected to evaluate response to streamrestoration. Friars Creek is located within a moderately urbanized watershed (approximate area: 10sq mi) where parts of the stream have been channelized to handle increased runoff from urbandevelopment. The proposed Friars Creek project area is experiencing dramatic changes in channelmorphology due to upstream channel modifications. This project represents an opportunity toimplement and demonstrate stream restoration techniques using primarily natural materials;simultaneously, we will assess the biological integrity of the stream reach before and after theproject.
