This reach of river was dredged to re-locate the original channel lost under tons of sediment that accumulated over the 90 years Brown Bridge dam was in place. This sediment also covered the native seed bank far below. We are looking for volunteers to assist with planting native tree and shrub seedlings, as well as herbaceous grasses and wildflowers to help reestablish a healthy riparian corridor. This opportunity is open to anyone capable of working by foot on soft and uneven terrain. </b></div><div class="" dir="ltr" id="yiv5688690638yui_3_16_0_1_1440109212087_19852"><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1440117718808_5231"><span class="" id="yiv5688690638yui_3_16_0_1_1440113078415_7400"><br></span></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1440117718808_5230"><span class="" id="yiv5688690638yui_3_16_0_1_1440113078415_7400"><br></span></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1440117718808_5229"><span class="" id="yiv5688690638yui_3_16_0_1_1440113078415_7400">This note came today from the GTCD.</span></div></div><div class="" dir="ltr" id="yiv5688690638yui_3_16_0_1_1440109212087_19873"><br class="" id="yui_3_16_0_1_1440117718808_5157" clear="none"><span class="" id="yui_3_16_0_1_1440117718808_5159"></span></div><div class="" dir="ltr" id="yiv5688690638yui_3_16_0_1_1440109212087_19874"><span class="" id="yiv5688690638yui_3_16_0_1_1440109212087_19875">But even more importantly, it reminded me that the BRCS is a big part of this project.</span></div><div class="" dir="ltr" id="yiv5688690638yui_3_16_0_1_1440109212087_19923"><br class="" id="yui_3_16_0_1_1440117718808_5164" clear="none"><span class="" id="yiv5688690638yui_3_16_0_1_1440109212087_19875"></span></div><div class="" dir="ltr" id="yiv5688690638yui_3_16_0_1_1440109212087_19924"><span class="" id="yiv5688690638yui_3_16_0_1_1440109212087_19875">The
