DESCRIPTION
Skagit Conservation District is partnered with USFS on an erosion reduction project to reduce the risk of road failures, erosion and its negative effects to Bacon Creek, several of its tributaries and its flood plain. This project was designed to reduce the risk of road failure and resultant sediment production that occur from water collection and concentration and its negative affects on fish habitat. The project consists of culvert replacement, ditching and fill stabilization on road 1060 MP 0-4.5, and culvert removal and installation of rocked lined rolling dips on roads 1062 MP 0-10.5 and 1062-014 MP 0-2.5. Chinook and Dolly Varden utilized this area as well as coho, chum, pink, sea run and resident populations of cutthroat, rainbow (steelhead). This project targets the limiting factor of egg to fry survival due to sedimentation for native Chinook, Coho, steelhead and Dolly Varden. Design emphasis will be on drainage that occurs on slopes greater than 35% with direct delivery to Bacon Creek. This roadwork was first identified in 1990 following a forest fire, 1995 Access and Management evaluation, Paulson 1997 and following 2003 storm activity. Two projects have relocated the first mile of FSR 1060 in 2004 and in 2007 will correct 3 road segments by moving into the rock slope. These two projects will and have greatly reduce FSR 1060 river encroachment. This project covered drainage corrections in these sections not covered by the 2004 and 2007 projects.
