Work underway to repair eroding bank streams

Gwinnett’s Department of Water Resources in coordination with Peachtree Corners is addressing several eroding stream banks that feed into the Chattahoochee River. The streams are located in the Peachtree Station and River Valley Estate subdivisions.

The work is part of a watershed improvement project to stabilize erosion, increase flood-storage capacity and restore aquatic habitat along with protecting sewer and stormwater infrastructure. The project will reconfigure and stabilize approximately 2,100 linear feet of stream along three interconnected tributaries in the Chattahoochee River Basin. The project includes site clearing, grading new stream channels and installing in-stream structures, site stabilization with erosion control matting. The county expects to have the project completed within nine months.
