Comments:
Part of the segment is in pasture along the south side of Old Number 11 Road. The rest of the segment is on the north side of the road. The channel is an E-type by reference, but beaver activity and human activity have caused minor incision in the lower segment. The driveway culvert crossing off of Older Number 11 Road is extremely undersized and sloped higher than the channel. This structure has caused a scour pool to form downstream and sediment is aggrading upstream.
