LEARNING OBJECTIVES:
The student will be able to articulate the general purpose and functions of how plants stabilize banks, and how bioengineering projects should function.
The student will be able to conceptually design a bank protection scheme using any of three bioengineering methods (two of which are WES developed and experimental) that employ the branches, trunks, and/or roots of willow trees to reduce streambank erosion.

BIOENGINEERING***??WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO DO?? *** DID I MENTION, FUNCTION-BASED DESIGN?????
• PROBLEMS: For rills & gullies from overland flow, strong and dense rooted ground covers or grasses might function well.
• Use pioneer species that will stabilize the bank and evolve into a climax forest?
• Plant specific plants for use by specific fauna?
• Do you need an understory, mid-story and overstory? Or not?
• Do you need no mid-story for woodpecker flyways?
• Will the overstory shade out the understory?
• Vegetative roughness or living dikes to reduce flow velocities & catch sediment?
• Do you need shade and canopy over the stream? Microhabitats?
• Insect production for the stream?
• Tall veg and canopy to keep cool moist air over the stream?
• Flood concerns? Use herbaceous plants!?!?

Conceptually, LIST PLANT CHARACTERISTICS NEEDED (not a specific plant) to satisfy performance goals

What’s the effective root depth??
![Page 9: PLANTING ADVENTITIOUS ROOTING PLANTS BY MACHINE AND HAND (PROSPECT CLASS)](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062320/56649d885503460f94a6cc3d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Bioengineering Planting Considerations• First look up, then look down, (up to analyze for amount of light and overhead power
lines, down for suitable soil & pipeline right-of-ways), then look around for exotic plant competition, and where (or if) the plants of choice are growing naturally. Plants on opposite banks might grow in different elevation bands. If plants are not found naturally, why?
• Plant materials can be obtained through commercial growers, NRCS plant material centers, grown in-house, or harvested from the wild.
• Harden-off rooted-stock plants (place outside greenhouse) before planting.• Harvested cuttings should be kept moist and out of direct sunlight. • Some cuttings benefit from soaking (up to 31 days for Black Willow). Water that plants
are soaked in should be fresh.• Very important to have good soil-to-stem contact, this must be carefully specified in
contracts• Plantings need to be closely monitored for insect infestation and mortality, some
replanting can be expected during the second growing season.• Is irrigation needed? Weed control? Browsing control?

How Vegetative Treatments Stabilize Banks• Foliage slows floodwaters on and near the eroding bank.
• Root network helps to bind soil together.
• Trunks and stems can trap debris and upslope failed material.
• Vegetation removes soil moisture through transpiration.
• Larger branches/trunks planted deep can sometimes mechanically stabilize soil, and could possibly pin shallow failure faults.
• Can induce sedimentation.
• Most importantly, the resulting stable bank allows for the establishment of volunteer plant growth and subsequent vegetative succession.

Adventitious Rooting Material Planting Considerations
• Should be harvested & planted when dormant• IF PLANTED DURING THE NON-
DORMANT • Or refrigerated at 28 degrees (wrapped in
plastic so material will not dry out and boxed in waxed cardboard boxes) and kept frozen until planted
• Or soaked for 10 days if harvested & planted when not dormant (expect about 25% to live)

Use stout twine to bind a set number of poles into a manageable bundle. Twine should be looped & tied at one end, then looped
& tied at the opposite end, thus providing a carrying handle

Soaking willow, half out of water, half of the pole should be submerged with butt ends underwater. Research by Dr. Doug Shields showed that soaking
Black Willow 10 days will increase root production by 2,600%, 100% flushed out, & twice as many survived. Fence is to protect from beaver browse.

Stream was straightened & stacked stone walls built along the
red lines, all without a permit!!

Some stone was removed from the walls, then trenches dug, (brown lines), live poles placed in the trenchs,
then stone added to provide a “funnel” effect to prevent the stream from flanking the project &
bridge.

Black Willow, Streamco Willow, Red Osier Dogwood & Sycamore were planted using the Slit Trench bioengineering method. 40 RPM container plants (7 species of trees & shrubs) were planted in the green oval areas.
Plantings form a grid to flow. No matter how water flows through the project, it
encounters rows of
vegetation (Living Dikes)

WHY WILLOW??Willows, dogwoods, alders, & cottonwoods (early pioneer species) hold the bank together & provide
roughness until other slower growing species or the seed bank kicks in.
Willows will not be long-term dominants, they are short-term aggressors that stabilize banks quickly
post-construction.
Paraphrased from Paul Fuhrmann, Ecology & Environment

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:
The student will be able to articulate the general purpose and functions of how plants stabilize banks, and how bioengineering projects should function.
The student will be able to conceptually design a bank protection scheme using any of three bioengineering methods (two of which are WES developed and experimental) that employ the branches, trunks, and/or roots of willow trees to reduce streambank erosion.
