A birds-eye view: Fl o Fl o w ow w w Fl Fl o Erosion Logs 4 ft.

To remedy this situation, the streambank was re-established and vegetation was planted. Then low flow deflectors were installed to capture sediment and gently nudge the water around the bend to help prevent severe soil erosion from occurring here again.
