Summary: Install two rock cross vanes in order to stabilize a headcut located just upstream from the crossing on the USFS Road 24 near the intersection with County Rd 3. Big Wall Creek has developed an approximately two foot high head cut just upstream from the road crossing with USFS Road 24 which and was likely caused by combinations of the road crossing, grazing, upper watershed forest management and fire, and past agricultural practices that occurred within the JV Ranch. In order to stabilize the headcut and prevent further upstream migration, two rock cross vanes will be installed at the location of the head cut and 60 feet upstream from the primary drop.
