Description
Project actions resulted in the installation of a prefabricated steel modular paddle-wheel driven drum screen, a new headgate structure, and construction of a rock weir diversion structure designed to divert the required diversion flow at the high and low creek design flows. The final project design for fabrication and installation of a fish screen was completed in January 2006. The NEPA/cultural survey was completed in April 2005. The ESA consultation was completed in November of 2005. The permits for this project were exempt because the project was a modification to an existing diversion. Right of way and construction access agreements with the landowners were completed in November 2005. The Idaho Department of Fish and Game performed all work on the project so a contractor was not hired. Construction took place in February 2006 instead of September and October of 2005.
The Idaho Department of Fish and Game completed objectives 3a through 3g in February 2006. 3a. Fish salvage details determined in consultation with NOAA Fisheries. 3b. Removal of existing rock and board diversion and head work structures. 3c. Installation of prefabricated fish screen structure. 3d. Installation of prefabricated intake structure and improvement of ditch. 3e. Construction of broad-crested weir and rock diversion structure. 3f. Inspection and certification of construction. 3g. Re-vegetation of areas affected by construction.
As part of the public outreach a tour was held on June 23, 2006.
Project Benefit
Passage of Snake River Spring/Summer-run ESU Chinook, Snake River Basin ESU Steelhead, and bull trout into high quality habitat in the upper reaches of Shingle Creek will be improved. Project actions will ease migration of these fish and prevent potential entrainment and mortality.

The actual type of monitoring will be as stated in the proposed
Idaho Department of Fish and Game (IDFG) will conduct a pre-construction fish survey above and below the construction site. The survey will consist of multiple pass electrofishing, marking, salmonid population estimates, documentation of other species present, and collection of aquatic habitat data. IDFG will repeat the same survey activities two years after construction is complete and will subsequently add this reach to their regular survey activities. |
