Referred to Other Agency - Close SR. Class: SR Created By: DELEONF Log Type: REF_EXTERNAL Summary: Investigation Details SRP engineers visited this site on February 15, 2018. The erosion site at 2308 Peach Ct is a small bank scour scar on the outside of a bend threatening to undermine a chain link fence. The site was last visited on 10-5-2011. Comparing with 2011 photos and measurements, it appears that the erosion has advanced slightly. There is a private storm drain discharging through the bank near the scar.No erosion repair work is planned at this location due to the minor nature of the problem and the fact that no resources other than the yard/fence are threatened.The advice we give to homeowners with fence issues are the following:1. Move the fence back from the edge of the creek2. Look at how water is flowing from gutters, patios, rooftops to make sure water flowing to the creek is spread out as much as possible before flowing down the creek bank.3. Plant groundcover and deep rooted plants at the fence (you can refer to ourGrow Green Guidefor good choices).Dr. Eric D.
