Description    


Work completed under this program fell under two primary objectives:

Objective 1. Patrol and Maintenance of Riparian Protection Fencing Projects:
· Continued frequent patrol of fence projects
· Removed trespass livestock from projects
· Repaired broken fence lines
· Constructed needed improvements
· Checked water developments regularly, maintained as needed
· Developed list of potential new projects
· Completed fence maintenance log to document activities

Objective 2: Monitor Riparian and stream Habitat condition within and outside Riparian exclosures:
· Developed parameters and sampling schedule for monitoring
· Implemented sampling program to measure stream bank stability, riparian vegetation
· Performed snorkel count to determine fish abundance and habitat utilization in and outside of the transect areas
· Continued to document riparian recovery with photo points at the end of the summer season.

Project Benefit    


Objective is to provide increased fence patrol and maintenance/improvement of exclosures so that trespass livestock do not destroy vegetation being protected by the exclosures.

      Benefits of these projects will be monitored by photographic documentation. Historic photo points recorded when the fences were constructed, will be scanned to digital format, and photo point locations are being recorded with GPS. A database will be developed to file images and recording dates. Substrate samples collected from stream reaches with and without riparian exclosures are being analyzed for comparison of food production and salmonid incubation survival. Related studies of fish production are conducted as part of fish production assessment projects.
