DESCRIPTION
This project is a fish habitat enhancement project designed to provide instream habitat for listed salmonids. It is located on private property at river mile 2.3 along the mainstem Entiat River. It consists of one bank-based engineered log structure. This project was completed during the in-water work window of July 16th-July31st.
This project consists of one bank-based engineered log structure. A total of 16 logs were installed at this location consisting of 9 rootwads and seven sticks. The sticks were used as bumper logs across the face of each rootwad to shed any objects that may come into contact with structure. The logs are fastened to one another with galvanized steel cable and epoxied to large boulders. A gap in the riparian canopy was utilized at this location in order to minimize disturbance and an existing orchard access route was used as well.
