Sandecki M. 1986. Prairie Creek wetland/riparian rehabilitation [unit 86-6: Skunk Cabbage Swamp mitigation]
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 contains a description of the wetland restoration site at Skunk Cabbage Creek. Work included disking the pasture, excavating some areas, spreading alder seed and planting Sitka spruce seedlings, and reconstructing a fence dividing park land from adjoining private property. The analysis lists ways this project could have been more immediately successful. Background information on file for most sites 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.
