Four Mile Creek

Lawrence Park Township used CZM funds to rehabilitate a section of Fourmile Creek at Napier Park. Concrete ballasts were moved from the center of the stream to the creek bank to help in stabilization. The sides of the stream and immediate surroundings were cleared of debris and landscaped with trees and shrubs.
