DESCRIPTION
Fish passage projects are actions that either improve or remove instream barriers which impede or block migration and spawning of salmonids. These barriers can include: dams, road crossings, bridges, culverts, canal and pipeline crossings, flood control channels, and erosion control structures.
The projects listed below are divided into 3 groups (A, B, or C) based on location:
A. Chimaucm Creek Lower Mainstem and Estuary: The Lower Mainstem of Chimacum Creek begins at Irondale Beach, continues up through Irondale and Port Hadlock and ends at the confluence of the Mainstem and the East Fork at river mile 2.6.
B. Upper Mainstem, Headwaters, and Tributaties: The Upper Mainstem begins at the confluence of the mainstem (at river miles 2.6) and the East Fork, and continues upstream through Chimacum, Center Valley, and up to the headwaters of the mainstem on Eaglemount.
C. East Fork Chimacum Ck. and Tributaries: The East Fork of Chimacum Creek begins at the confluence of Chimacum Creek (at river mile 2.6) and the East Fork, and it continues upstream through Beaver Valley to the headwaters of the East Fork.
