DESCRIPTION
Mainstem Primary - Remove nonnative species of Buddleia (common name butterfly bush), Himalayan blackberries, Scotch broom and purple loosestrife from the riparian area. These areas will then be replanted with native conifers, hardwoods, and shrubs that are currently represented on portions of the property. Within the 5 acres work area, all nonnative vegetation will be treated and 2 acres will be planted with native vegetation. Because native vegetation is well established in patches within the work area, revegetation is proposed for approximately 2 of the 5 acres. Community outreach will occur to neighbors and with local schools in addition to volunter planting events. All salmonid and trout species will benefit from restored riparian habitat, including Chinook and coho salmon and steelhead trout. RM 1.7-2.0
