DESCRIPTION
RM 6.85-6.7; Create shallow water habitat just downstream of the East Marginal South bridge. This location is believed to be at the upper limit of the salt wedge during much of the spring outmigration of juvenile Chinook, making it a prime location for outmigrants to hold as they transition to salt water. - Purchased 2.16 acres in 2009. Land swap pending to add shoreline and 0.25 acres in 2014. - Remove the existing low value buildings, excavate mudflats and marsh, plant riparian vegetation, and create public access trails and water access in 2014. Issue: Cultural resources require archaeologist onsite during excavation. Permitting is complex.
