STAR KILLIAN: This is it. RON HAZELTON: Well, I can see the problem. I can imagine water rushing through here and also, these banks -- I guess you were telling me, get really slick, huh? STAR KILLIAN: Yes, absolutely. RON HAZELTON: We don't want to be climbing up and down those. National Environmental Education Foundation. Family2Family - Atlanta Community News - WSB-TV. Tree Revetments For Streambank Stabilization. A tree revetment, made by anchoring trees along a stream bank, is an inexpensive, effective way of stopping stream bank erosion.
The trees greatly slow the current along the eroding bank; this decreases erosion and allows silt and sand to be deposited along the bank and within the tree branches. The deposited material forms a good seed bed in which the seeds of river trees such as cottonwood and sycamore can sprout and grow. The resulting trees spread roots throughout the revetment and stream bank. Earth Day 2009: Team Depot @ Spink-Collins Park. TEway Grant Program. Georgia NRCS.
