Webcast 4. Stream Restoration: A Holistic Approach

Speakers:
Josh Burch, District of Columbia DOEE
Trying to naturalize a stream channel presently in a concrete channel within 100-year floodplain presents challenges for public safety, tree canopy, infrastructure, park space utilization, project costs, and more. This presentation will explore the importance of finding ways to turn competing interests into complementary interests in a large scale and multi-jurisdictional stream restoration project. The Oxon Run Stream Restoration project is a complex stream restoration project that presents as many challenges as it does opportunities.

Managing an IDDE program that covers 950 square miles of urbanized Southern California landscape with a population of more than 3 million people is a challenge, especially when you have a network of 400 miles of regional flood control channel and 42 miles of coastline to protect. The Orange County Public Works (OCPW) IDDE team relies on teamwork and partnerships with local, state, and federal agencies to help prevent, detect, track, and respond to illicit discharges in Orange County, CA. This talk will cover how training and coordination on a regional scale helps minimize environmental impact when larger spills and releases occur. Attendees will learn how the sharing of data and information, and the use of technology, assist with the prevention, detection, and response to illicit discharges.
Elizabeth Fassman-Beck, Engineering Department Head, Southern California Coastal Water Research Project
