To trial using underground drainage running nearly parrallel to the river to cut off water before it travels into wet soaks on riverbanks that is causing land slides into the river. We can use the drainage like we do in cropping paddocks to stop the water seeping into these wet soaks it should dry the soil out near the riverbank and stop land slides. These wet areas are made worse due to irrigation. These areas can then be planted with deeper rooted trees and shrubs to hold the bank together as it is hard to get several species to grow in these water logged conditions.
