ONONDAGA CREEK, NEAR SYRACUSE, NY. SITE 5-D & OTHER REACHES {Engineered Rocked Riffles (with all stones in compression), Traffic Control Stones, LPSTP, transplanted Vegetation, a Boil-Up Pool, & a Viffle} PPT by dave derrick
2
THE NATURAL, THEN CONSTRUCTED BOIL-UP POOL ON UPPER ONONDAGA CREEK, NEAR SYRACUSE, NEW YORK Constructed May 2006 The go-to guy, Mark Schaub with the Onondaga County Soil and Water Conservation District, Lafayette, NY.
3
Looking US toward the left bank. Note the interesting natural hook causing a Boil-Up pool. 4/18/2006
4
Another view of the left bank, 4/18/2006
5
Not much of a hook, but very effective at forming a natural deep, circular, scour pool. 4/18/2006
6
Natural Boil-Up Pool on Onondaga Creek. 4/18/2006
7
Looking DS, construction has begun on DS riprap and Engineered Rocked Riffle. 5/24/2006 From Mark Schaub
8
Looking DS, stone in, but not a great semi- circle yet-5/24/06 From Mark Schaub
9
Looking DS, bank stone & kicker in, still not a good semi -circle 5/24/2006 From Mark Schaub
10
Looking US, note how bank kicks current, just a little more tweaking needed (pull some toe stone back) 5/24/2006 From Mark Schaub
11
The next day, flow right to left. All angles and circles correct, note flow over curved kicker, truly a thing of beauty!!! From Mark Schaub
12
Looking DS. Planform now consists of two pools & a riffle within the bend 5/25/2006 From Mark Schaub
13
Looking US at the Boil-Up Pool at bankfull stage. Note thalweg down the center of the stream From Mark Schaub

TRANSPLANTING EXISTING VEG AND/OR ROOT MATS WITH THE TRACKHOE {2 MINI CASE STUDIES}
26
DIAMOND -ORIENTED TRAFFIC CONTROL STONES {TCS} WITH BEDLOAD BENCH IN BETWEEN, WITH TRANSPLANTED VEGETATION ON TOP OF TCS & BEDLOAD BENCH WITH SINGLE-STONE BENDWAY WEIRS ON EVERY 4th TCS.
27
TCS were typically 3 ft by 3 ft by 3 ft, spaced 6 to 8 ft apart, with bedload material choked in between forming a continuous bench. Vegetation was pulled down from top bank & placed on the bench. Every 4 th TCS was keyed into the bank & had a single- stone Bendway Weir added to the stream end.

56
THE VIFFLE A Derrick-McCullah idea hatched late at night in the Seattle airport while headed to Alaska Combining the best attributes of the Cross-Vane and the Engineered Rocked Riffle (rock vanes slowing currents near banks and riffle improving fish passage and creating a properly proportioned scour pool with flat sloped tail-out) Build the two Rock Vane arms of the Cross-Vane Downstream instead of a vertical drop build the rocked riffle. At DS end of riffle the stones are keyed into the bed & all stones are placed in compression
57
THE FOLLOWING VIFFLE IS NEW CONSTRUCTION, NOT A REPAIR OF AN EXISTING CROSSVANE
