DESCRIPTION
The City of Gig Harbor sponsored this project to restore Donkey Creek and the associated estuarine habitat to its natural condition by reconstructing the stream channel. The project successfully removed an undersized culvert, excavated and daylighted the creek, and replaced a portion of North Harborview Drive with a bridge. Lower Donkey Creek reach was conveyed through a 36 inch pipe from above North Harborview Drive to the harbor. This project established an open 5-foot wide stream channel and a 10 to 40-foot wide estuarine channel.
