DESCRIPTION
This project would decommission 2.2 miles of Trout Creek Road (Forest Road 6320) and 3.6 miles of associated spurs in the Trout Creek subwatershed within the North Fork Skykomish River watershed. The goal is to reduce road-related sedimentation and associated impacts to fish habitats in Trout Creek, a stream with documented bull trout, steelhead, coho, and rainbow. The project would also meet a secondary goal to decommission roads within the Wild Sky Wilderness, newly designated under the Consolidated Natural Resources Act of 2008. Decommissioning these road segments would involve removing culverts, constructing cross-drain waterbars to improve drainage across the remaining road prism, removing hazardous fill material from stream crossings and unstable slopes, and blocking the roads to vehicular access. These roads would no longer be considered part of the FS road system. Measurable objectives include the miles of road treated, amount of fill removed, and number of cross-drainage structures constructed.
