Abstract
A multi-agency task force planned, designed, and installed four bioengineering treatments with two additional modifications for stabilizing and restoring a 90-m reach of the Chena River in downtown Fairbanks, Alaska. Volunteer citizens were also involved in the installation. The goal of the project was to illustrate to private landowners and businesses various low-cost methods of controlling bank erosion that would also be beneficial for salmonid habitat and improve aesthetics.
