DESCRIPTION
Great Peninsula Conservancy will buy and protect permanently 180 acres in the Grover's Creek watershed in north Kitsap County. The project conserves interconnected, highly functioning creek bank habitat in the lower reach of Grover's Creek, 1.1 miles upstream from Miller Bay. The property is under imminent threat of residential development and is a critical link within a larger wildlife corridor that extends from Carpenter Creek near Kingston on east Kitsap Peninsula to Hood Canal near Port Gamble. This project protects the creek's main stem and tributaries; old growth Sitka spruce-western red cedar forests; and palustrine scrub-shrub, emergent and forested peat bog wetlands. The land and its creeks provide spawning and rearing areas for migrating fish, habitat for amphibians, and nesting and foraging areas for Neotropical migratory birds. Given the closeness of this wetland to Miller Bay, the project is essential to the long-term protection of the bay.
