You are gonna wanna bring in an stream bank engineer FOR SURE!
Where I am it is required.
This is a pretty simple stream bank restoration, and planting is going to play the major part.
Remember the lesson of the neighbor, rocks increase turbidity, increasing downstream erosion. And that water will move most rocks. It is a tenacious force.
Coir wattles, willow bundles that is what I would expect. This is a fun field, it is neat to work to restore natural process. And one of the processes is the eventual undermining of the existing trees. It won't be soon but it is bound to happen. I guess it all depends on the low water mark. It the tree can continue to stabilize itself during the low water periods, and your stream bank restoration works to take the brunt of the scouring power of the water the trees will last beyond your clients attention span. (life expectancy)
I't will be a fun project, slightly out of our average comfort zone. Keep growing!
