Description A couple living along Lake Spokane (also known as Long Lake) recognized that their existing bulkhead was failing. They also understood that bulkheads can cause problems for neighbors by increasing erosion further down the shoreline. So they agreed to install a naturalized shoreline as a demonstration project to other Lake Spokane homeowners.
