COFWCO staff, SCA interns, and KSU professors and students after completing a red cedar revetment stream restoration project in McConnell Creek at McConnell Air Force Base. Red cedar trees, and invasive species, were cut and placed along a cut bank to trap sediments, provide habitat for fish and wildlife, and reduce erosion.
