Environmental Aspects—Sacramento Bank Protection
Studies show that bank protection can include environmental measures and can preserve environmental values from erosion. Reclamation of the Sacramento Valley, California, included Federal construction of a leveed flood-control project. Erosion has threatened the integrity of the levee system and a program of revetment construction at critical sites was authorized in 1960. Early construction was on a least-cost basis and seriously reduced riparian vegetation which supplies important wildlife habitat in the semi-arid valley. Alternative revetment designs and construction procedures have been developed to minimize adverse environmental effects.
