After

The Watershed Conservation Resource Center (WCRC) partnered with the University of Arkansas Housing Group (UAHG) to develop an enhancement approach for the unnamed tributary that runs along the west side of the UAHG property and flows into Town Branch at the southern edge of the site. The stream channel was stable but was overrun with invasive plants including, bush honeysuckle, privet, and Japanese honeysuckle. The WCRC improved the riparian area by removing and managing the invasive plants at the site and the terrestrial habitat was improved by selecting and planting native grasses, wildflowers, shrubs, and trees based on the growing zones associated with the stream channel, Ecoregion, and sunlight.
