This study by the National Risk Management Research Laboratory, evaluated the effectiveness of stream bank and channel restoration as a means of improving in-stream water quality and biological habitat in Accotink Creek, Fairfax City, VA. This project is hoping to gain information about the long-term success or failure of restoration techniques after a project is completed.
