Breakneck Brook Large Woody Debris Restoration
Place whole trees and rootwads (large woody debris) into Breakneck Brook to restore aquatic habitat functions such as sediment storage, pool formation and streambed stability. Trees and rootwads would be placed and anchored with a small tracked excavator. Existing large woody debris quantities are less than 50 pieces/mile and natural conditions should be 175-235 pieces/mile. No comments of concern were received during the 30-day notice and comment period thus there is no appeal opportunity for this project decision.
