Description

SRRC, in coordination with the USFS, MLA, and PWA proposes to implement off-channel fisheries and riparian habitat enhancement on the Red Bank river bar on the North Fork Salmon River. Project components include increasing habitat complexity in riverbar side channels, creating high-flow backwaters and alcoves, and revegetating the riverbar, which will create high quality winter rearing habitat and cold-water summer refugia for coho salmon and other anadromous salmonids.

Project Benefit

The project is expected to increase the abundance of complex off-channel rearing habitat with high intrinsic potential for year-round rearing of juvenile salmonids by providing both high-flow and thermal refugia.
