Final Methods
This phase of stream restoration occurred on an untouched section of Spring Creek and Main Creek on the property owned by Legacy Wallsburg LLC. This was part of a Regional Conservation Partnership Program RCPP led by NRCS and the Wasatch Conservation District. Stream rehab methods were planned with the landowner, DWR biologists and NRCS engineers. Channel repair, shoring up irrigation structures, cross veins, box culvert crossings, reshaping and re channeling, replanting grasses forbs trees and shrubs, riparian fencing and a grazing management plan have all been put in place to connect many miles of contiguous stream restoration in the Wallsburg Valley.

Future Management
The area will continued to have photo point monitoring from the Conservation District, the landowner will continue to evaluate and update their grazing plan, and many forms of monitoring will continue to happen through DWQ, BYU and Utah State graduate research mostly relating to water quality and the long term effects of the stream restoration.
