This grant is for developing a comprehensive operational plan for the Clear Creek Environmental Water Program (EWP). A primary objective is to evaluate the re-operation of Whiskeytown Dam to release biologically beneficial, geomorphologically significant pulse flows on Clear Creek. This initiative includes developing and implementing effectiveness monitoring plans to assess the impact of these flows. The overarching purpose is to provide crucial habitat benefits for native fish populations, specifically fall-run Chinook salmon and federally listed spring-run Chinook and steelhead trout. This work is consistent with the NMFS OCAP Biological Opinion, aiming to enhance aquatic ecosystems and ensure sustainable water management for critical species.

| Description: | The goal of this project is to develop an operational plan for the Environmental Water Program (EWP) acceptable to all parties and to evaluate re-operation of Whiskeytown Dam to release a biologically beneficial, geomorphologically significant pulse flow on Clear Creek. Additional supporting work includes: development of geomorphic and biological effectiveness monitoring plans and implementation of the monitoring within them if the pulse flow is implemented. These flows will provide habitat benefits for fall-run Chinook salmon and federally listed spring-run Chinook and steelhead trout, consistent with the NMFS OCAP Biological Opinion, June 2009. Please see the attached Notice of Intent for a more in depth description of the work to be accomplished. |
