Stave River Erosion Protection (Fish Habitat)

Project Description

Stave River Erosion Project consisted of Stabilization of an approximately 40 m long segment along the right bank of the Stave River, which has been eroded leading to a loss of cultural artefacts at a known archaeological site on Kwantlen Nation Indigenous Reserve. The segment is located about a kilometer downstream of Ruskin Dam as well as immediately downstream of a pilot stabilization and bank protection work that was implemented in September 2018.

Our Role

Quattro Constructors completed bank stabilization works along a 40-metre segment of the Stave River's right bank. The scope included installation of erosion protection measures, riprap placement, and integration of habitat features to preserve cultural artifacts at a known archaeological site on Kwantlen Nation Indigenous Reserve. All work was performed in close coordination with environmental monitors and First Nations representatives.
