This project will address degraded habitat conditions in the lower 2.7 miles of the Lyre River which includes the entire anadromous reach. This reach includes privately owned property on the west bank (former Lyre River Campground, lands recently conserved by North Olympic Land Trust (formerly Brooks Property), and the Department of Natural Resources Lyre River campground. Within this reach the Lyre River has been channelized to the east side of its valley and its banks have been armored. Large wood has been systematically removed from the channel and habitat conditions are characterized as a plain- bed channel. Previous efforts to advance restoration on the Lyre were unsuccessful because of socio-political concerns. However, changes in ownership including the NOLT purchase as well as a fresh outlook from private property owners on the west side suggest that the time is right for Lyre River restoration. We propose a design-build project beginning with a geomorphic, hydrologic and hydraulic analysis of conditions through the lower 1.5 miles of the Lyre River. This will form the basis of design supporting discrete restoration options within the reach. Those are expected to include meander restoration, creation of off-channel habitat, additions of large wood and riparian revegetation actions.
