Snohomish Conservation District partnered with the US Forest Service to provide controlled drainage along 13.85 miles of Little Deer Road System to reduce risk of road failure, erosion, and sediment production, and to reduce effects on fish habitat (egg-to-fry survival/rearing survival) and water quality in Little Deer Creek (Deer Creek is listed as temperature sensitive, WA 303d). Little Deer Creek is a major tributary to Deer Creek (an important tributary to the North Fork Stillaguamish River). Bull trout, steelhead and coho utilize Little Deer Creek, while chinook, pink, chum, and sea run cutthroat trout utilize lower Deer Creek. Little Deer Creek has 10 miles of anadromous and resident fish habitat, and has been identified as refugia for steelhead, coho, and char in the Deer Creek basin. This project applied various treatments, including the addition and/or replacement of culverts, fill stabilization, installation of water bars, and removal of road prism where needed for stability. These treatments are expected to improve water quality and reduce the risk of landslides/sediment delivery. This action is expected to contribute to the incremental reduction of road-associated failures and other sedimentation that is occurring from water collection and concentration. Better spawning, egg to fry survival, rearing and holding habitat conditions for salmon and other aquatic species will result. Monitoring has been an ongoing part of this restoration effort.
