SRP Project

Stillaguamish Old Channel Habitat Rest.

Organization	Stillaguamish River Salmon Recovery Co-Lead Entity
Sponsor	Stillaguamish Flood Control District
Status	Completed
Schedule	Start Date: 3/17/2000 End Date: 7/6/2005

DESCRIPTION

The Stillaguamish Flood Control District used this funding to restore salmon habitat in the old channel of the Stillaguamish River. The completed project is comprised of two elements: 1) a unique, instream flow-enhancement structure (Hanson Gate) that increases freshwater flow in the Stillaguamish Old Channel, operated and maintained by the Flood Control District, and 2) revegetation on just under seven miles of Old Channel streambank, averaging 50 feet wide, with a minimum of 35 feet. This included noxious weed control and fencing where livestock are present. More than 15,500 native trees and shrubs were planted. These restoration actions combine to improve dry-season water quality in the Old Channel to class A levels and to restore healthy habitat for fish and wildlife. Water quality data from the Stillaguamish Tribe Natural Resource Department confirmed that the projected improvement in dissolved oxygen levels was achieved.
