Foothills Trail Culvert Replacement

Organization	Puyallup and Chambers Watershed Salmon Recovery Lead Entity
Sponsor	Pierce Conservation District
Status	Completed
Schedule	Start Date: 7/1/2003 End Date: 2/10/2006

DESCRIPTION

Pierce County Conservation District used this funding for the Foothills Trail Culvert Replacement project, which opened a large area of wetland to juvenile salmon in a tributary to South Prairie Creek. The wetland habitat is less than a mile from mainstem South Prairie Creek, a priority stream for salmon recovery in the Puyallup River Watershed. The existing concrete culvert under the Foothills Trail was a total barrier to fish passage due to a 1' perch with no plunge pool, high velocity, and the bare pipe barrel. The culvert blocked fish passage to a large wetland/pond area of rearing habitat on a tributary to South Prairie Creek. The project replaced this barrier culvert with an 8' diameter aluminum culvert with spawning gravel in the invert. Wetland rearing habitat was opened for South Prairie salmon.
