This report describes results of a Level I Fish Habitat Assessment (FHAP), a Riparian
Habitat Assessment, and a Channel Conditions and Prescriptions Assessment for the
Stawamus River, BC. These assessments were carried out by EVS Environment Consultants, Enviro-Pacific Consulting, and LaCas Consultants Inc. respectively, on behalf of the Ministry of Environment, Lands, and Parks, Surrey, BC.
The Stawamus River is located near the community of Squamish on Howe Sound and has
a total length of 21.3 km with a drainage area of approximately 4,920 ha. The Stawamus
River is a Community Watershed. An intake weir was constructed across the stream in
1972, 5.3 km upstream of the mouth of the river. Water is withdrawn from the stream for
drinking water purposes by the community of Squamish. A falls at 4.8 km prevents
upstream movement by fish, including anadromous salmonids.
