DESCRIPTION
The Mid-Columbia Fisheries Enhancement Group will use this grant to protect previous Yakima basin restoration investments by maintaining plants at nine restoration sites on the Yakima River and its tributaries. The arid conditions and intense weed competition mean that some sites need more than 2 years of maintenance to establish robust, native plant communities. Work will include weed control, mulching, removal of weed fabric, repairing fences, and selective planting and watering. At Reecer Creek, work will include placement of tree root wads and large logs in the creek to increase the types of habitat found there. The Yakima River is used by steelhead and bull trout, which are listed as threatened with extinction under the federal Endangered Species Act, as well as Chinook and coho salmon, and resident rainbow and cutthroat.
