This BLM OR-WA grant aims to restore aquatic habitat and improve stream function within the Upper Rickreall Watershed. The project will foster partnerships with local individuals, organizations, and volunteers to install approximately 60 large log structures in Rickreall Creek. This intervention will increase channel complexity, trap migratory sediments, and enhance floodplain interaction, thereby creating improved summer and winter rearing habitat for native cutthroat trout and anadromous coho salmon. Over the long term, the initiative will also increase water retention in the creek’s bed and banks, consequently improving municipal water availability, aligning with Clean Water Act objectives. This grant is designed to enhance critical aquatic ecosystems and support community water resources.

| Description: | The objective of this project is to develop a partnership with individuals, organizations, and community volunteers in the Upper Rickreall Watershed in order to restore aquatic habit by improving stream function. The installation of approximately 60 log structures in Rickreall Creek will increase channel complexity to trap migratory sediments and increase floodplain interaction. These measures will enhance summer and winter rearing habitat for all life stages of native cutthroat trout and anadromous coho salmon. An additional benefit, over the long term, includes increased water retention, both in the bed and banks of Rickreall Creek, thus improving municipal water availability, which is consistent with the directions of the Clean Water Act |
