This will consist of building two 3 feet by 3 feet by 12 feet gabions, which are rock-filled with 4-8 inch riprap stocked one on top of the other on the north ends of the wwitchyards. The 6 feet by 6 feet by 6 feet washed out area shall be filled and compacted with native soil and a high survivability filter fabric spread out beneath the gabions.
