Popis: To meet the demands in both flood control and nature conservation, near nature construction method was adopted for the river restoration on downstream of Fazih River. The project was performed following the procedures: (1) ecology investigation, (2) basic hydrological information collection, (3) riverbed and embankment design, (4) nature conservation design, and (5) construction. Special features include guiding river flow with low jetties to generate fish habitat, using Ryushikou method to build revetment covered with densely populated vegetation, afforestation for heron nesting. A rough post construction evaluation showed satisfactory results are achieved thus far.
