DESCRIPTION
This project restored connectivity for native fish passage from President Channel into the lower West Beach Creek system on Orcas Island in San Juan County. The project provided for the improvement of 340-feet of West Beach Road and the restoration and realignment of 135-feet of West Beach Creek. Replacing the under-sized 5-foot diameter culvert with a 19-foot bottom less culvert with an 8 -foot opening restored fish passage to 0.74 miles of stream above the road crossing. The project builds upon a 2014 SRFB-Funded project sponsored by the Northwest Straits Foundation that restored fish passage about 1/4 mile downstream. The project included pre-project fish exclusion, preservation of significant cedar trees, and post-project planting.
