Gain hands-on experience at this floodplain enhancement workshop and help restore Tanque Verde Creek's natural floodplain. WMG is partnering with the Lakes at Castle Rock Homeowner's Association on a project to enhance floodplain recharge from upland stormwater flows to benefit the creek and underlying shallow groundwater aquifer. You will learn approaches to reducing erosion and stormwater flooding impacts and how these efforts can actually improve water quality and water infiltration to benefit the overall riparian health of the area. You can expect to learn about earthworks and basin shaping, native seeding, and how to build rock grade control structures.
