Description    


This design project addressed two existing stream crossings that are barriers to anadromous fish passage. One is a culverted stream crossing located along the upper mainstem of Lindsay Creek and one is a culverted stream crossing across a Lindsay Creek tributary known as Crystal Creek. The purpose of this project was to develop 100% engineering designs for the removal/ remediation of these barriers. Several design options were developed for consideration by stakeholders and a technical advisory committee. The preferred design options selected for 100% design were those that were most likely to improve fish passage and salmonid habitat while remaining consistent with the landowners management plan.

Project Benefit    


Expected benefits include 100% design for an implementation project that will open access to one mile of habitat on Lindsay creek and 0.33 mile on an unnamed tributary, locally known as Crystal creek, to all lifestages of coho salmon.
