SWS 2020 Top Projects: Cotton Mill Stream Restoration

This project aimed to mitigate bank erosion that occurred along a section of a local stream. The project goals included improving water quality by reducing stream velocity, reducing and eliminating bank erosion, eliminating invasive species along the banks and increased dissolved oxygen in the stream.

In this week’s interview, Katie Johns, managing editor of Storm Water Solutions, is joined by David Dickson, storm water engineer with the city of Rock Hill, South Carolina, to discuss the Cotton Mill Stream Restoration project, which is another one of the 2020 Top Projects.
