Description    


Two engineered log jams (ELJs), one off-channel, seasonally flooded wetland and a side channel and associated ELJs (SF-17) were constructed. Construction included realignment of a ranch road with a wet crossing and hillside spring subsurface drain to the wetland. Cattle exclusion fences were realigned and reinstalled to keep livestock out of the new off-channel habitat. Temporary staging areas and access roads were developed and rehabilitated

Project Benefit    


Improve coho salmon survival and production by addressing winter habitat as a limiting factor through increasing juvenile rearing habitat capacity and complexity over a range of winter flows.
