DESCRIPTION
Current barrier consists of two metal culverts. The main culvert is a 48" corrugated metal pipe (CMP) which is 57 feet long, with slope of 4.88%. Additionally there is a 24" CMP overflow pipe placed approximately 5 vertical feet higher in the fill. This pipe is 48.7 feet long, with a slope of 5.65% The pipes are undersized, perched, and form velocity barriers for upstream salmonid migration. The two existing culvert barriers will be replaced with a 10'H x 24'W x 57'L box culvert. The downstream channel will be lowered to match the downstream gradient and will maintain and average reach gradient of 6.25%.
