Description    


Project entailed riparian planting in several reaches in the Hoh River. Spawning gravel installation was applied to stream reaches with suitable gradient and potential for enhanced spawner utilization. These areas are degraded due to sedimentation resulting from past road construction, timber harvest and other land disturbing activities. Project also entailed Japanese knotweed monitoring and eradication.

Project Benefit    


Current habitat problems that will be treated would include degraded spawning and rearing habitat for all salmonid species found in the Hoh drainage, alder-dominated and noxious weed infested riparian areas, fish access and water quality issues created by in channel cedar spalt blockages. Species benefited will include depressed native stocks of Pacific salmon, steelhead and ESA-listed bull trout.
