Description
Restoration actions for this project target critical salmonid life stages and limiting factors, and included: pool development, floodplain reconnection, side channel and off-channel habitat restoration, LWD placement, channel reconstruction, and riparian revegetation. The primary project features implemented include side channel creation, large wood placement within the main channel and floodplain areas, riverine wetland enhancement, gravel redistribution within the main channel that utilized material from levee removal, and riparian vegetation planting. Riparian condition, water temperature, side channel and wetland conditions, and floodplain condition are identified as priority limiting factors that were addressed with the project implementation. Road improvement was reported at project proposal, but the actual activity implemented was road obliteration (C.6.d.1).
PCSRF FFY 2019 funds were expended on project costs incurred during the PCSRF FFY 2019 contract award period. PCSRF FFY 2020 funds and other funding were used to complete the project. No funds are reported as match to PCSRF funds.
Project Benefit
Restoration actions for this project target critical salmonid life stages and limiting factors, and include: floodplain reconnection, side channel and off-channel habitat restoration, riparian fencing, LWD placement, and channel reconstruction. This project will immediately benefit ESA listed salmon and steelhead by improving and expanding migration, spawning, incubation and emergence, and summer and over-winter rearing habitats. Restoration actions will increase abundance and productivity of salmon, steelhead, and multiple native fish species. Accomplishments
