	EROSION CONTROL \| Bartram Park and Darby Creek Stream Restoration Project
		Darby Creek was navigable up to Darby in the 19th century, but urbanization in the watershed has reduced the average stream depths dramatically.
		The Bartram Park/Darby Creek Stream Restoration Project was a joint project of the Delaware County Conservation District, the Delaware Riverkeeper Network, the Darby Creek Valley Association, and Darby Borough.
		In addition to the in-stream components of the project, restoration of a natural floodplain in the adjacent area was another critical component.

	Stream - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A stream, brook, beck, burn or creek, is a body of water with a detectable current, confined within a bed and banks.
		The study of streams and waterways in general is known as surface hydrology and is important in environmental geography or environmental geology.
		A stream smaller than a creek, especially one that is fed by a spring or seep.

	USGS Peachtree Creek WaterWatch: Stream stage and streamflow
		Stream stage (also called stage or gage height) is the height of the water surface, in feet, above an established datum plane where the stage is zero.
		The stream-measurement procedure is to go across the stream at selected intervals and measure the total depth and the velocity of the water at selected depths at each interval across the stream.
		In the diagram, water depth/velocity measurements are obtained horizontally across the stream at 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9 feet (the vertical lines in the diagram).
