This proposed instream restoration project is located at a site on the South Fork Stillaguamish River east of Arlington, WA and north of Granite Falls, WA. Its goal is to improve habitat and hydraulic diversity and complexity for Chinook salmon. The primary type of habitat to be restored is adult migration habitat and juvenile rearing habitat (pools). The proposed project will install at least two (2) woody debris structures in the South Fork Stillaguamish River at locations consistent with the SRFB-funded Reach Assessment (PRISM #07-1769; attached as "Reach Assessment"). The Reach Assessment studied the feasibility of installing woody debris in this reach for the benefit of Endangered Species Act-listed Chinook salmon and recommended projects at priority locations. Woody debris placements are explicitly planned for in the Stillaguamish Watershed Chinook Recovery Plan to remedy the current extremely low levels of large woody debris found in the Stillaguamish River and its forks and tributaries. The Chinook Recovery Plan is incorporated into the Puget Sound Chinook Salmon Recovery Plan (NOAA, 2007). Funds will be used for final site selection, final designs, permitting and construction. Preliminary project schedule: 2012: execute project agreement and execute landowner agreements; 2013: develop site-specific designs and begin permitting; 2014: finalize permits, construct.
