Description
At both sites a total of 2.37 miles of roads were closed including removal of stream crossings and erosion control via planting and improving drainage. Total estimated sediment savings is 12,278 cubic yards.
Project Benefit
Improve spawning and rearing habitat by reducing coarse/fine sediment delivery and improving riparian canopy for Chinook and coho salmon, steelhead and coastal cutthroat trout in a selected section of the Mad River and Vincent Creek tributary to Mad River in Humboldt County. The objective is to save 11,991 cubic yards of sediment from delivery by dispersing road runoff on 2.3 miles of road, reestablishing drainage patterns at 21 stream crossings and removing or stabilizing sediment from 15 sites along the alignment.
