The Water Wizard noticed that
the Stream Banks are Being Eroded Because of
Improper Stabilization!

Proper stabilization techniques can prevent stream bank erosion and addition of dirt to rivers.
Sometimes plants and trees are disturbed or moved during construction. When this happens,
the soil that was underneath can be easily washed into nearby lakes and streams by rain or wind.
Soil from eroding land that washed into steams makes the water look muddy and can smother aquatic
life, clog fish gills, and cut off light that underwater plants need to grow. Help your community plant
trees or leave native grasses and shrubs along a stream bank to reduce erosion. Plants prevent
erosion by keeping soil where it belongs - on the land, and out of the water!.
