Bank stabilization along a 2,000 foot segment of Lower Willamette River shoreline was performed to prevent the transport of PCB-contaminated soil. Construction on the riverbank was implemented between July and November 2015 and included excavation and disposal to prepare the bank for stabilization. Planting of over 9,000 native shrubs and trees was completed on March 25, 2016. Work was conducted under a voluntary agreement and the project was designed and permitted to protect existing site facilities and operations and so that no off-site mitigation was required.
