Schedule

DESCRIPTION

The lower Tanwax Creek flows for 4.5 miles through a 98 acre riparian wetland that had been cleared and now consist of small shrubs and large amounts of reed canary grass. A 1998 wetland assessment of Nisqually basin wetlands identified this areas as a high priority for restoration due to its benefits to salmon. This project would work with local volunteers and landowners to revegetate between 3 to 5 acres annually in this high priority area.
