The upper Deschutes (RM 31041) is high priority for rearing, spawning and egg incubation yet the reach lacks LWD, habitat complexity (pools) & stability. The Coho Recovery Report modeled a 7% decrease in fine sediment and 25% increase in LWD (Scenario A) to have the second largest impact on Coho survival; the first being increased marine survival. Specifically identified is treatment of the area between Fall creek (RM 35) and Pipeline creek (rm 31) to reduce fine sediment input that reduces egg to emergence survival. The RM 33 Instream Channel Complexity & Riparian Planting project addressed the above limiting factors by adding stable large wood (pieces & structures) for pool formation, gravel bar formation, increased retention and decreased summer channel width to increase water depth. Project goals also include increasing riparian vegetation for long-term sediment reduction and stream shading. This site was identified through the WRIA 13 three-year implementation priority list, watershed outreach and inquiries from the former landowner. Lack of LWD is a limiting factor for the Deschutes River as is an excess of fine sediment, lack of riparian cover and temperature. This project addresses all of these. This project seeks to restore the aquatic habitats on approximately 1,500 linear feet of river channel in the reach by increasing the amount of large woody debris, re-establishing native riparian forest and creating in-stream complexity.
