  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Williams Creek Watershed Action Plan Abstract -- This document is the Williams Creek Watershed Action Plan prepared for the Williams Creek Watershed Council and funded by the Oregon Watershed Enhancement Board. The Action Plan is based on current information contained in the Williams Creek Watershed Assessment. This information has been used to evaluate site-specific and watershed-wide issues affecting salmon and other essential watershed resources. These issues include: protection/conservation, riparian health, sediment sources, fish barriers, fish screens, channel modifications, roads, low stream flows, wetland loss, non-point source nutrient pollution, and additional assessment opportunities. The Action Plan recommends how to protect, restore, and enhance conditions through the implementation of a watershed health strategy.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Pudding River Watershed Assessment, 2006 Abstract -- Northeast of Salem, five large streams flow west out of the Cascade Mountains to join the Pudding River as it meanders north across the broad Willamette Valley and to its confluence with the Molalla River near Canby. In this document, we characterize past and current watershed conditions and identify opportunities for improving conditions in this watershed. Chapter headings include: introduction and watershed overview, water quality, fish populations and aquatic habitat, water flow and use, riparian vegetation and wetlands, and riparian and stream restoration. The two appendices deal with Pudding River watershed history and BLM Conservation Strategy objectives. 221 pp. Numerous illustrative maps in PDF format accompany this report.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Dodge Canyon Culvert Replacement Project Completion Report (OWEB #205-162 & #206-284) Abstract -- In early 2004, teh Elk Creek Watershed Council identified an undersized steel culvert that was blocking fish passage to more than a mile of salmonid habitat on private land on Dodge Canyon Creek. The Council approached the land owner and obtained permission to seek fudning to replace the culvert. Two additional culverts on a side tributary, blocking 1/2 mile of additional habitat, and a partial barrier on Thompson Creek, were also also identified for removal. All culverts were slated for removal at one time by a single contractor in hopes of saving money. Final removal and construction of the culverts was completed on August 28, 2006. The landowner will maintain the culverts for 10 years, with periodic inspection by the Elk River Watershed Council. The Elk Creek Watershed Council will take photos of the projects for at least two years, and ODFW will conduct fish presence and spawning surveys to document fish use for two years.
