Description    


In 2006, decommissioned 2.25 miles of road by ripping, outsloping, and cross road draining the road and decommissioning 17 stream crossings.

In 2007 decomissioned .4 miles of road and 7 stream crossings.

Project Benefit    


Improve spawning and rearing habitat by reducing coarse/fine sediment delivery and improving riparian canopy for coho, Chinook, and steelhead in a selected section of South Branch North Fork Elk River tributary to North Fork Elk River in Humboldt County. The objective is to save 14,383 cubic yards of sediment from delivery by decommissioning, and dispersing road runoff on 3 miles of road, and decommissioning 18 stream crossings.
