Major Reconstruction in Ravinia is Finished !

 

This project was done to stabilize Ravinia Park's streambank and bottomland floodplain to curb erosian for better water quality in our lake.

Trees and old broken drain tiles were removed, brush cleared, and the stream and bay were dredged. Boulders and rip-rap were put in place to help guide and filter the stream.

Then everyone helped to plant plugs and seeds.
