Summary report of erosion control work [rehabilitation unit] 85-3: G-Line/G-2/G-4 roads

Kenning M and Wosika EP. 1986. Summary report of erosion control work [rehabilitation unit] 85-3: G-Line/G-2/G-4 roads

This report is one of a large group containing details of individual projects done as part of the major rehabilitation efforts in the Redwood Creek basin, Redwood National Park, California. It describes the 85-3 unit within the drainage basin of Tom McDonald Creek, the land use history (with logging history map), and erosion features. The erosion control work was mainly by heavy equipment, with some hand labor used in preliminary removal of vegetation and post-excavation straw placement. This report includes a comparison of costs and efficiency between rental of heavy equipment and work through a contract. It includes work and cost summaries, and a map of erosion treatments on the lower G-Line. Background information on file for each site includes photopoint files (photopoint maps and description of locations for documentary photographs), color slides (the work process, before-and-after documentation), administrative files (calculations of volumes for excavation, equipment/hours/costs, daily logs, contracts, etc.), detailed geomorphic site maps (unmarked mylar base maps with overlays), and aerial photographs.
