The project aimed to continue stewardship of riparian plantings throughout all areas of the Cornet Bay restoration site. Maintenance included periodic weeding, replacement of unsuccessful plants where needed, in-filling with additional plants, as well as providing browse protection to reduce mortality rates of new plants. Summer watering was increased due to the increasing prevalence of hotter and drier summers. From 2018 to 2021, volunteers contributed a minimum of 371 hours of assistance at the site. NWSF contracted with Skagit Fisheries Enhancement Group to oversee maintenance events and activities including recruitment of volunteers. A total of 19 weeding/watering events took place over the duration of spring 2018 through June 2021. Two planting events occurred as well (Orca Day, Oct 2019; and a final event in spring 2021). The site experienced vandalism at times with newly installed plants being removed shortly after planting. Two separate attempts at placing exclusion fencing were completed. The first with plastic fencing in October 2019, and again in summer 2020 to replace it with wire fencing. We were also informed that deer were getting into the fenced area regardless of the fencing and had gotten caught in the fence. Neighbors cut open the fence to release the deer. Over 200 additional plants were added in 2019 to supplement those that did not survive. Over 600 additional plants as well as mulch was added in April 2021. Volunteers from the Island County MRC will continue to steward the site as funding allows.
