Case Study: Pinto Construction restores Little Six Mile Creek with Davey Resource Group

Pinto Construction restores Little Six Mile Creek with Davey, planting 45 shrubs and completing monitoring over 3–5 years

A private residential client was issued a consent order by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation to restore a portion of Little Six Mile Creek on their property, necessitated by constructing a home. The client, using site elevation data initially provided by Pinto Construction, contracted Davey Resource Group to develop and oversee a compliant wetland and stream restoration plan.

Davey Resource Group developed a plan that was approved by regulators and then implemented, involving excavating a new stream channel, seeding with approved grass and wetland mixes, and planting 45 shrubs. Davey concluded the restoration was successfully completed and is functioning as intended. The project will undergo ongoing monitoring by the Davey team for the next three to five years.
