This project will remove a fish passage barrier at River Mile 0.5, where Ennis Creek crosses E Ennis Creek
Road. The existing double concrete culverts under E Ennis Creek Road will be replaced with either a
bridge, wide concrete box or arch culvert with a width to allow unimpeded flow of fish, wood and
sediment. A final design and permits are being produced with USFWS funding, such that this project is
shovel ready for construction. Combined with the removal of the upstream Hwy 101 barrier by WSDoT
in 2024, this project will restore access to 5.4 miles of currently inaccessible high quality spawning,
rearing and migration habitat on Ennis Creek.
