Hi Old, I went down to my creek yesterday afternoon to inspect my cedar tree revetment. Someone else sort of addressed it. You do NOT need a permit, IF you work with the Missouri Department of Conservation. I have about 400' of bank line that we stabalized 6 years ago. We cut about 100 big red cedar trees and dragged them to the creek. This was about our only cost or contribution. MDC personnel from the fisheries division came out with help, provided the "duck bill anchors", cable, and clamps and the jack hammer tool to drive the anchors in deep in the creek bank. I pushed the trees over the bank to them, and they cabled them to the bank. They layererd them in and secured the whole thing with cables.
It is working good. Silt and creek bank cements the trees in place. eventually sycamore, soft maple and willows grow up, the bank tapers in some and it is holding good. Also provides some fish habbitat it the otters havent gotten them all yet.
I'll post some pictures later. Our cost was zero, other than some labor and tractor work.
You may need help with the tree cutting due to your back.
