Grimes Creek Stabilization

The Ontario County Highway Department and the Ontario County Soil & Water Conservation District partnered to stabilize a streambank on County Road 33. The streambank had severe erosion issues and flooding problems. The Highway Department aligned this area of Grimes Creek to its’ natural channel and the eroded banks were shaped and stabilized. The area was then hydroseeded and willow stakes were planted in order to provide extra stabilization for the bank.
