McCarthy Emergency Watershed Project

The McCarthy Stream Restoration was an emergency watershed project for the protection of historic landmarks in the Wrangell St. Elias National Park near the Canadian border in southeastern Alaska. The project involved the installation of stream vanes in an ice covered glacial stream in an area of known archeological significance. The Multi-State Design Team prepared the design and provided a construction engineer during installation in 2000 for this Class V project. An archeologist from the National Park Service was on site during excavation.
