DESCRIPTION

This project will restore a historic barrier embayment estuary connected to a small perennial stream at Rose Point near Eglon in North Kitsap County. The project occurs on two adjacent private properties with supportive and engaged landowners. Specific project elements include the removal of 770 feet of creosote piling bulkhead; the restoration of approximately 2 acres of salt marsh/ embayment estuary by removing berms and fill, re-creating two barrier spits including sand and some habitat forming wood, and reconnecting the stream to the salt marsh; replacement of an undersized bridge that poses a barrier to fish passage; restoring about 500 ft of channelized stream upstream of the bridge; and replanting native riparian vegetation along the stream and shoreline adjacent to the restored estuary. The project will benefit juvenile Chinook salmon as they outmigrate from Puget Sound in the spring and summer as well as provide the potential to restart a small coho and chum run in the freshwater stream with adults returning in the fall and juveniles outmigrating in the late winter, spring and summer.


This project was originally identified in Kitsap County's 2016 assessment of priority nearshore salmon habitat projects as a top tier restoration project and will contribute to a larger regional effort to restore a series of barrier embayment estuary habitats for migrating juvenile salmon in Puget Sound.
