  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Williams Hydrologic Assessment Abstract -- The Assessment is divided into two Phases. Phase 1 is a Hydrologic Assessment of the community of William to determine how human development in the Williams areas has altered the natural drainage pattern and contributed to frequent flooding in downtown Williams. Assessing sediment sources, loss of wet areas, water storage capacity, and the condition of streams identified potential restoration opportunities. Phase 2 will use information from Phase 1 to build a flood management and restoration plan. Title: Williams Hydrologic Assessment Abstract -- The Assessment is divided into two Phases.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Josephine and Jackson Counties Lakes and Reservoirs Master Plan for Angler Access and Associated Recreational Uses 1968 Abstract -- Josephine and Jackson Counties are located in the southwestern part of the state. The famous Rogue River Valley is the nucleus of the area. Most of the Jackson County lakes are in the Cascade Mountains. Josephine County has a few lakes in the Siskiyou Mountains at the south end of the county. The lakes included in this plan are either reservoirs or back country lakes. Some of the reservoirs were natural lakes but have been enlarged with the construction of a dam; others were formed by flooding a low meadow area. The fisheries differ as to locality and type of lake. The back country lakes have rainbow and brook trout; the large reservoirs are stocked with rainbow, cutthroat, and brook trout, and one reservoir has kokanee salmon. The warm-water lakes and ponds support populations of bass, bluegill, crappie, and catfish. We have attempted to include are those existing and potential bodies of water that provide or could be developed to provide significant recreation at economically feasible costs.

This transition has . ~I presented significant issues for the Cities of North Bend and Coos Bay and these issues are the focus of this project. Flooding in the Creek system has become an increasingly regular occurrence in specific areas. Water quality has deteriorated to the point that, in 1998, the Oregon Department of Water Quality listed Pony Creek and Pony Slough as being water quality limited for high bacterial counts. The Creek system supports or has supported salmon runs (now protected under the Endangered Species Act) and is o designated Essential Salmonid Habitat by the Oregon Department of State Lands and the Oregon Department ofFish and Wildlife. Citizens and agency staff have come together to better understand the current condition of the Lower Pony Creek, and to chart a course toward an ecologically healthier future for the watershed.
