Description

The sponsor will pursue the acquisition of high priority parcels containing freshwater floodplain habitats defined in the 2017 SWC Protection Strategy Update.

Project Benefit

The primary goal is the protection of Tier 1 floodplains of the
mainstem Skagit. If the Sauk Slough property is not purchased,
then the protection areas would expand to Tier 1 floodplains of the
mainstem Skagit, Sauk and Cascade rivers and Tier 2 tributaries for the
primary benefit of juvenile Chinook habitat and habitat-forming
natural processes
