Description
The Mill Creek Dam Fish Passage Project modified a barrier to adult and juvenile coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) and steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss) and reconnected access to approximately 11.2 miles of spawning and rearing habitat upstream. The barrier, a 5-foot high concrete flashboard dam on Mill Creek, was modified by constructing a roughened channel and a roughened ramp fishway side channel to allow adult and juvenile passage.
Project Benefit
RR-CCC-6.1.2.2
Remove or modify the flashboard dam on lower Mill Creek near the confluence with Wallace Creek. This barrier is the highest priority barrier within the Russian River population for remediation. Accomplishments
