DESCRIPTION
The Kittitas County Conservation District used this funding for the Indian Creek and Jack Creek Culvert Replacement project, which replaced two culverts that were full barriers to upstream fish migration on tributaries to the North Fork Teanaway River. Access was provided to nearly nine miles of habitat for salmonids including steelhead, spring Chinook, coho, and bull trout. This project addressed identified limiting factors for fish production and is consistent with strategies defined in the Yakima Subbasin Plan (2004). The culverts were on Jack Creek and Indian Creek, where each intersects Teanaway Road (owned and maintained by Kittitas County). Both creeks are small left-bank tributaries and both existing culverts were 6 feet diameter with significant outfalls, no streambed material, and a slope of more than 1%. The Jack Creek culvert was replaced with a 19-foot-wide 3-sided pre-cast box culvert . The Indian Creek culvert was replaced with a 17-foot-wide bottomless arch culvert. Both are consistent with WDFW fish passage criteria. This project was developed as part of the Yakima Tributary Access & Habitat Program (YTAHP) through the Kittitas County Conservation District. Engineering alternatives, drawings and cost estimates were presented to YTAHP's technical work group in 2005. Project partners included Kittitas County, US Forest Service, and the Kittitas Conservation Trust (KCT). The partners worked to secure $200,000 in matching funds for the project.
