The purpose of this project was to investigate habitat conditions for fish stocks between Clowhom Dam and the Salmon Inlet and to identify potential habitat enhancement or compensation sites with hydraulic characteristics that would operate within the expected regulated regime of the Clowhom system

Old Reference Number:  Project # 05.CL.01

Old Reference System:  FWCP Fish Wildlife Compensation Program - Coastal

Date Published:  Mar 2005

Report ID:  40679

Audience:  Government and Public

One of the limiting factors identified in the Strategic Plan was reduced habitat capability below the dam due to reduced large woody debris (LWD) and gravel recruitment (Anon. 2000b). The purpose of this project was to address Fish Restoration Objective 3 of the Bridge Coastal Restoration Program Strategic Plan: investigate habitat conditions for fish stocks between Clowhom Dam and the Salmon Inlet. The Primary Objective of the project was to identify useable fish habitat below the dam and identify potential habitat enhancement or compensation sites with hydraulic characteristics that would operate within the expected regulated regime of the Clowhom system (Anon. 2000b). Enhancement initiatives would help to mitigate the loss of fish habitat from the original footprint impact of the project and could include gravel placement, habitat complexing and riparian vegetation restoration/planting.
