Comments:
Segment impacted by TSI. Landowner indicated changes of channel in recent past (last spring). Channel widened and took out trees on property. Very incised and headcutting through deposits upstream. Landowner wants a project to help protect his property. Years ago (~30) left bank was 2 -3' high, now it is 10 feet high. Low w/d ratio in cross section but chose stage F-III based on landowner information. Deeply incised. Cuts into clay and glacial till.
