This chapter provides non-structural and structural practices that stabilize and protect streambanks and shorelines from the negative effects of land erosion. For water quality purposes—bioengineering and non-structural practices using native vegetation are preferred over conventional “hard armoring” such as riprap, seawalls, and bulkheads.

The Cooperative Agreement for Stream Bank Restoration Program assists landowners through public-private partnerships by offering advice and funding for habitat projects on private lands that restore and protect wetlands and other wildlife habitat that might otherwise go unprotected. The funding for this cost-share initiative is provided by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Program to GSWCC and provides incentives to install practices that improve riparian buffers and repair and protect stream banks. Project applications are prioritized in order to address priority watersheds and to provide maximum benefit to the 63 species on Georgia’s Threatened & Endangered Species List.

The Stream Improvement Program offers assistance by designing and constructing small projects to restore stream channels damaged by high water or flooding events and to stabilize streambanks affected by erosion at sites where there are imminent threats to the structural integrity of homes, businesses and industries. The primary objective of this program is to provide increased public safety on a smaller scale than the larger flood protection type projects and to reduce high sediment loads and prevent them from being transported downstream and re-depositing elsewhere. For additional information on the Stream Improvement Program, please contact Bill Kcenich at 717-783-0369.

Clemson’s Stream Bank Repair program addresses unhealthy stream banks that are suffering from erosion and instability. Workshops will provide insight on how watersheds function and will identify steps needed to stabilize and revegetate stream banks.  The 2021 Stream Bank Repair manual will help homeowners and professionals choose practices that will prevent property loss, stabilize stream banks, and protect water quality. Actions include establishing a 3:1 or 4:1 bank slope and installing native vegetation in the riparian area , with the overall purpose of protecting water quality. Clemson’s Stream Bank Repair program works with homeowners, land managers, park staff, and landscape professionals to address unhealthy stream banks that are suffering from erosion and instability. Stream Bank Repair works above what is called the Ordinary High Water Mark.
