Riprap will be placed at the base of the steep eroding bank to provide toe protection and to prevent excessive bank contact and scouring of the bend. Additional material and riprap will be buried in the bank at one or both the ends of the protection structure, forming keys that further prevent water from scouring behind the riverbank. Construction will also include riprap and compacted fill along the protection area and up to the full height of the riverbank, which ensures there are no voids or trenches behind the protection structure. Vegetation will be planted on the stabilization as appropriate.
