DESCRIPTION
This project will acquire two desirable properties along Morse Creek at the upstream end of the Morse Creek Re-meander project. The properties were originally part of the larger property acquisition carried out by WDFW which resulted in the 100 acres purchased along Morse Creek. Unfortunately, funds ran out and the Cottonwood Lane properties were not acquired as part of the larger purchase. Currently, WDFW is facing a need to purchase lands to compensate SRFB for the construction of chinook rearing ponds along Morse Creek and additional funds would facilitate the acquisition of these high priority properties adjacent to the future floodplain reconnection.
