Located in The Story of Wild Brook Trout / Landowner Resources
This handbook is intended to encourage the proper design and implementation of all new stream crossings in Georgia to maintain stream connectivity, improve stream health, provide for public safety, improve water quality, and make communities more resilient. Originally published in 2012, this 2021 update represents the work of 18 authors drawn from State and Federal Agencies, NGOs, academia, and private firms.

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.

Project chemical/x-pdb Gravel Augmentation at Spawning Habitats in the Oconee and Ogeechee Rivers of Georgia
The robust redhorse (Moxostoma robustum), a species that had been lost to science for about 150 years, was discovered on the Oconee River in 1991. Wild populations subsequently found in the Savannah River (Georgia/South Carolina) and Pee Dee River (North Carolina) have been augmented by stocking in other areas of Georgia and South Carolina. The species is very particular about the water quality and depth as well as the gravel quality of its spawning sites. To encourage propagation of this native species, the Robust Redhorse Conservation Committee coordinates activities in several southeastern states. The gravel augmentation is expected to benefit invertebrates, including mussels, as well as anadromous species such as striped bass, American shad, and Atlantic sturgeon.

Project Habitat Restoration to Benefit Rare Species and Natural Communities in the Altamaha River Watershed
Cool water springs feeding major coastal rivers in Georgia provide critical thermal refuges during summer for diadromous fishes such as striped bass. However, the connectivity of many of these springs to the main rivers has been diminished by drought, sedimentation, accumulation of debris, and beaver dams. The goal of this project was to improve the connectivity of Troup Springs to the Oconee River and enhance spring flows.

Project Octet Stream Living Shoreline - Little St. Simons Island, GA.
This project removed a failing bulkhead on Little St. Simons Island, GA and installed a living shoreline in its place to provide stream bank stabilization, habitat for eastern oysters, and essential fish habitat.
