SRP Project

Flett Creek Dam Removal Project

Organization	Puyallup and Chambers Watershed Salmon Recovery Lead Entity
Sponsor	Pierce Conservation District
Status	Completed
Schedule	Start Date: 3/17/2000 End Date: 10/10/2000

DESCRIPTION

Pierce County Conservation District used this funding to remove a dam and an adjacent dilapidated fish ladder structure on Flett Creek, a tributary to Chamber Creek (WRIA 12) in the city of Lakewood. The stream had down-cut below the dam, rendering the existing fish passage structure impassable to salmon. The fish ladder had also undermined and become unstable. The project removed the dam and fish ladder, then re-graded the stream back to its original slope. This project eliminated the last fish passage barrier in the Flett Creek drainage, insuring unimpeded access for chum salmon, coho salmon, and cutthroat inhabiting the stream. There is approximately 2 miles of habitat above the dam. Project partners included the City of Lakewood (providing a 20% funding match), South Puget Sound Salmon Enhancement Group, and Puyallup Tribe.
