The Morse Creek Riverine Restoration Project aims to re-activate 1700' of channel and floodplain as it existed around 1939 prior to installation of a dike which pushed the river against the valley wall. The project, on Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife Property, will restore high quality mainstem, side channel, and off-channel habitat in a stream reach which is severely degraded by human impacts. It is channelized, confined, over-steepened, diked and depleted of large wood, resulting in severe channel simplification. The straightened channel is extremely energetic and paved with large cobbles and boulders resulting in extremely poor fish habitat conditions for all life stages. Restoration work will include 1) restoration of the 1939 stream channel, reconnection of the stream with 9.3 acres of flood plain, and 2) construction of one substantial engineered log jam and instillation of 9 small and 6 large engineered log habitat structures as well as 3 other log structures. Improvements will benefit ESA listed steelhead, bull trout, pink salmon, coho salmon, chum salmon and out-planted Elwha chinook.
