SUMMARY:Spring 2025 Semester Low-Tech Restoration Workshop Series
DESCRIPTION:The purpose of the Low-Tech Process-Based Restoration (LT-PBR) workshop series is to provide restoration practitioners with guidelines for implementing a subset of low-tech tools—namely beaver dam analogues (BDAs) and post-assisted log structures (PALS)—for initiating process-based restoration in structurally-starved riverscapes. Utah State University’s Restoration Consortium will describe ‘low-tech process-based restoration’ (LT-PBR) as a practice of using simple\, low unit-cost\, structural additions (e.g. wood and beaver dams) to riverscapes to mimic functions and initiate specific processes. Hallmarks of this approach include: \n\nAn explicit focus on the processes that a low-tech restoration intervention is meant to promote\nA conscious effort to use cost-effective\, low-tech treatments (e.g. hand-built\, natural materials\, non-engineered\, short-term design life-spans) because of the need to efficiently scale-up application.\n‘Letting the system do the work’ which defers critical decision making to riverscapes and nature’s ecosystem engineers\n\nSpring LT-PBR Dates\n\n\n\nCourse #\nCourse Name\nDates\n\n\nCEWA 5620\nIntroduction to LT-PBR\nJan 7\, 14 & 21\n\n\nCEWA 5622\nPlanning of LT-PBR\nJan 28 & Feb 4\, 11\n\n\nCEWA 5621\nScience and Case Studies of LT-PBR\nFeb 18\, 25 & Mar 4    \n\n\nCEWA 5623\nDesign of LT-PBR\nMar 18\, 25 & Apr 1\n\n\nCEWA 5624\nImplementation of LT-PBR\nApr 8 & 12*\n\n\nCEWA 5625\nAdaptive Management of LT-PBR\nApr 15 & 22\n\n\n\n\nRegistration opens November 14th.\n\nTime: Tuesdays 1:30 – 4:15\nFormat: Online via Zoom (*April 15 9a-5p Saturday field trip in Logan\, UT)\nCost: $315 per course (*$415 for CEWA 5624) \nCourses can be taken individually or as a series. \nContact Ryan Thomas\,  restoration@usu.edu\, with any questions.
