Title

  • Hobson Creek Corridor Restoration Project, Phase 2: Tributary 6 to the East Branch DuPage River: Section 319 Project Report

Description

  • The Hobson Creek Community Council completed the Hobson Creek Corridor Restoration Project, Phase 2 in order to protect against severe streambank erosion, to provide nonpoint source pollution control along Hobson Creek and to improve water quality of the downstream East Branch DuPage River. Installed stream stabilization techniques have provided effective and environmentally sound bank protection and channel stability for the Phase 2 reach. The Hobson Creek Community Council will provide long-term maintenance for the project site. Public involvement to date includes awareness of adjacent homeowners, numerous trail and parkway visitors near existing signage, a project description and site tour for the River Restoration Principles and Practices Conference sponsored by IL-IN Sea Grant, and publication of three newspaper articles, one environmental newsletter article, and three professional trade magazine publications.
