DESCRIPTION
Clallam Conservation District partnered with the US Forest Service on this project, located in the Dungeness River watershed on Forest Service road (FS) 2860 (0.0-4.8) and FS 2880 (0.0-1.5) in the north end of the Hood Canal Ranger District of the Olympic National Forest. The river miles directly effected are RM 15-19. The goal was to minimize road related delivery of coarse/fine sediment inputs to anadromous spawning & rearing habitat in the Dungeness River. Objectives were to improve hillslope hydrology, reduce potential of management related mass wasting and surface erosion from roads. Preliminary work included an Environmental Assessment (September 2000) and survey and design work. The fish affected by this work included several listed as threatened under the ESA, including Chinook, summer chum, and bull trout. NOAA/NMFS designated all anadromous habitat accessible to Chinook as critical habitat, up to RM 18.7 on the Dungeness River. Decommissioning FS road 2860 consisted of removing culverts and unstable fill slopes, ripping the road surface, and out-sloping segments of the road. Soil bio-engineering techniques were used for soil stabilization. Road stabilization of FS 2880 and 2860 consisted of removing unstable fills, implementing selected out-sloping, and improving drainage structures.
