Amazing full span #beaverdam on Bear Creek in Phoenix backing up water over 100’ upstream providing moisture to riparian plants and making a deep pool of cool water. #beaverbeliever #streamsmartrogue

After the September fires in the Bear Creek watershed, agencies and NGOs coordinated to seed burned streambanks to reduce erosion and sediment runoff. Now all that “Hoody Barley” is mature and will add organic matter and hopefully we can keep invasive blackberries down and allow native plants to regenerate and restore the vital riparian areas.

Been checking out some constructed wetlands in Eagle Point and Talent. These facilities were constructed to accept stormwater and treat it using detention and biological activities before it heads to a stream. The yellow seep monkeyflower is a common native plant in wet areas. #wetlands #stormwater #jacksoncountyoregon #cleanerwaterstartshere #erythrantheguttata

Well it’s a beautiful spring and plantings like native red-flowering currant are enjoying the sun BUT we will be hurting for water this summer. 😩🥲☹️ #gonative

The field season is here and sampling streams and outfalls flowing into streams helps us understand local watershed health. #waterqualitymonitoring #talentoregon #bearcreek #wagnercreek #ecoli #streamsmartrogue #fieldscientist #sciencematters

A wetland constructed to protect water quality is getting planted this week in a facility behind the Phoenix, OR Civic Center. #stormwatermanagement #stormwater #wetlands #greeninfrastructure #phoenixoregon #publicworks
