Description

This project will fund the culvert design and engineering process to replace ADF&G culvert #20601535 located on a tributary of Old Tyonek Creek in West Cook Inlet and perform related juvenile salmon surveys.

Project Benefit

This project will provide design and engineering plans for a culvert replacement that will make accessible the full extent of salmon habitat along an Old Tyonek Creek tributary, reconnecting 1.4 km of stream and 1.4 ha of wetlands. A fish-friendly culvert will restore self-sustaining natural ecosystem function and processes along this creek tributary and wetland area and ensure that the connectivity between both sides of the road is maintained so anadromous fishes are able to easily move through habitat as needed for their growth and survival.
