Date Created (ISO Standard):

Description:
This study proposed to develop a methodology for rehabilitating a silt-polluted stream, through the employment of in-stream sediment-flushing devices and to measure the biological impact of rehabilitation on the insect community. The field study phase of this project was conducted in the East Fork and the main stem of Emerald Creek, a tributary to the St, Maries River in northern Idaho. The specific objectives included: 1) conduct a biological and physical inventory of a silted stream; 2) evaluate sediment flushing capabilities of different types of hydraulic structures; and 3) determine recolonization of the rehabilitated areas by invertebrates.
