DESCRIPTION
The City of Sammamish will complete final design to correct 3 significant fish-passage barriers along the lowest 425 lineal feet of George Davis Creek from Lake Sammamish shoreline to the area upstream of East Lake Sammamish Pkwy NE (ELSP). Barrier corrections include: 10a) Daylighting the creek to a relocated stream channel north of the current outfall and replacing the culvert under E Lake Sammamish Shore Ln SE with a fish-passable culvert; 10b) Replacing a barrier culvert under ELSP with a fish-passable box culvert; and 10c) Removing or modifying a concrete weir located upstream of ELSP. This project expands upon King County's East Lake Sammamish Trail Improvements scheduled for construction in 2019-20 that will install a fish passable box culvert between 10a and 10b. Once constructed, the combined projects would restore fish access to 0.38 miles of high quality salmon spawning and rearing habitat and restore the full complement of streambed processes and floodplain function through the project area. The City's fish passage project is expected to form a sediment delta at the mouth of George Davis Creek to improve habitat for Lake Sammamish Chinook salmon. Lake Sammamish kokanee salmon is the target species for this fish passage project; once numbering in the tens of thousands, their main spawning areas were reduced to 3 or 4 primary tributaries. George Davis Creek has the potential to support a kokanee population, and at one time, also provided habitat for coho and sockeye salmon, and cutthroat and rainbow trout.
