Members of a construction crew make final adjustments near the end of the initial construction stage of a stream restoration project at Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point. Only weeks before, this piece of ground was the site of a dysfunctional concrete culvert that did a very poor job of routing storm water runoff from an air station housing area to the Neuse River. The Cherry Point Environmental Affairs Department tackled this project in effort to clean up the inefficient site and to improve water quality in the Neuse. The project will soon move into its next stage with a series of plantings throughout the stream’s riparian zone.
