  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Little Butte Creek Watershed Action Plan Abstract -- This document is the Little Butte Creek Watershed Action Plan prepared for the Little Butte Creek Watershed Council and funded by the Oregon Watershed Enhancement Board. The Action Plan is based on information contained in the Little Butte Creek Watershed Assessment and additional source documentation. 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 includes recommendations for how to protect, restore, and enhance conditions through the implementation of a watershed health strategy.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Calapooia Watershed Fish Passage Assessment Abstract -- Potential fish passage barriers at road-stream crossings were assessed for tributary streams to the Middle Calapooia River Watershed and the Courtney Creek Watershed. Fish passage guidelines developed by ODFW were used to determine whether the culverts were fish passage barriers. The assessment includes information on why fish passage is important, field methods, results, recommendations, and an example field sheet and description.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Rock and Richardson Creek Watershed Assessment Abstract -- The intent of this assessment is to provide a framework for action based on a review of the many recent studies that have been completed in this area. The Clackamas Basin Atlas, funded by the Environmental Protection Agency and coordinated by Metro, provides a basin-wide perspective on the entire area. Metro followed up this effort with a landscape study focused on Rock and Richardson Creeks. Pacific Rivers Council and the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW) have done fish surveys and analyzed the health of aquatic life. During the development of this assessment Clackamas County was in the midst of completing a stormwater management plan for the proposed urban areas. This assessment summarizes the findings of these and several other studies, and provides a context for moving forward with creek protection and restoration.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Long Tom Watershed Assessment Abstract -- This assessment presents current and historic information on the physical, biological and cultural landscape in the Long Tom Watershed. Aspects of the watershed that were studied include physical stream conditions, hydrology, sediment transport, land and water use, vegetation, habitat, aquatic species and water quality. In general, this information is summarized by subbasin. The maps in this assessment show the extent and general location of certain watershed features or human impacts, but they should not be considered precise enough to target a specific piece of property.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Chehalem Watershed Assessment Abstract -- The Chehalem watershed assessment is a publication of the Yamhill Basin Council (YBC) and is a reference tool for landowners, watershed residents, and council members. It contains factual and interpretive information about the condition of the watershed, both past and present. This document is a snapshot, of sorts, but it’s also tied to an ongoing process of community-based land use planning; the information contained will need to be updated as needs and objectives evolve. The assessment includes the topics of a Watershed Overview, Historical Conditions, Channel Habitat Types, Vegetation, Riparian and Wetland Conditions, Channel Modifications, Sediments, Hydrology and Water Use, Water Quality, Fish Habitats and Barriers, Restoration and Enhancement Projects, and a Watershed Conditions Summary.
