🌿 Restoring Haskett Creek in North Asheboro Park 🌿 Check out some updates during construction from a current project in Randolph County at North Asheboro Park!

The Haskett Creek Stream Restoration Project is working to improve the health and stability of Haskett Creek and an unnamed tributary flowing through North Asheboro Park in Asheboro, NC, through funds secured through NC Land and Water Fund. The project will enhance and stabilize more than 1,200 linear feet of stream. Haskett Creek is an impaired waterbody impacted by surrounding urbanization, excessive stormwater flows, streambank erosion, and a lack of streamside buffers. These challenges have contributed to poor benthic communities and declining stream health. Through stream restoration and stabilization, this project will help reduce erosion, improve water quality, and create a healthier watershed for the Asheboro community. 💧🌱 Piedmont Conservation Council is proud to support projects like this that invest in healthier waterways and more resilient communities.
