Description    


This project replaced culverts or structures with open bottom arch culverts.

Project Benefit    


This project will replace two road crossing structures that block passage of adult and juvenile steelhead, juvenile spring Chinook and redband trout to upstream spawning and rearing habitat. Replacing problematic culvers with structures that allow for unimpeded fish passage will benefit fisheries in this stream and cumulatively to the Middle Fork John Day system. Additionally, replacement of the failing log crib/culvert (crossing #1) will prvent a large scale failure that could lead to head cutting and vastly increased amounts of sediment into the system.
