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. From the author's Introduction: 'The K&K Road is one of the largest man-caused sources of sediment within the Redwood Creek watershed. The portion through Redwood National Park passes through some of the most erodible terrain within the watershed.' This report covers the third year of rehabilitation work on this road. Background information includes short sections on geology/geomorphology, soils, land use history, and erosional features. The rest of the report describes treatments. It includes several maps, tables of costs. 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.
