A stream in Ingersoll finally got the repairs its needed. A log crib made out of dogwood was put up along the bank of Halls Creek to prevent further erosion. It's a problem that's went on for two years, causing the relocation of a walking trail. Ingersoll needed funding before it could start the project, which came from TD Friends of the Environment Foundation. Conservation Services Coordinator with the Upper Thames River Conservation Authority Brad Glasman says this stream was an important one to restore. "This is a beautiful stream: there's trout in this stream, it has really nice water quality. One of the nicer streams probably in the Thames River Watershed. The nice thing about features like this, as oppose to putting just rock in it, is it adds that second dimension because it'll shade the stream and add cover for fish to get in and hide from predators and things like that," said Glasman. The improvements will also reduce the amount of sediment entering the pond at the end of the stream. The crib cost 5 to 10-thousand dollars to install.
