Farner Stream Restoration Project
Yellow Breeches Stream Improvement Project at The Farner Property
The Farner Property Stream Improvement Project took place slightly downstream from the Route 34 Bridge that crosses the Yellow Breeches before Mount Holly Springs. The project consisted of a 150’ modified mud sill crib built on the right bank and a deflector built slightly downstream on the right bank. Large rocks were strategically place below both structures. Gleim Environmental provided the heavy equipment and worked closely with the volunteers to complete the project.
