Plumas Corporation uses a wide range of techniques to address degraded stream and meadow systems. The techniques used for a particular project are determined by the goals of the landowner, constraints of the landscape and land use, and severity of the degradation.

Projects always include project effectiveness monitoring to determine if the project is performing as expected. Project level monitoring can include: stream flow, groundwater, biological indicators, forage production, carbon sequestration, and water quality parameters such as water temperature and turbidity.
