Touchet Lower River (Non-Restoration/Protection Priority Reach)

Warnock In-stream Habitat Restoration

Organization	Snake River Salmon Recovery Board Lead Entity
Sponsor	Walla Walla County Conservation District
Status	Completed
Schedule	Start Date: 10/1/2012 End Date: 9/30/2014

DESCRIPTION

The Lower Touchet River downstream from its confluence with Wetstone Creek has become unstable and is encroaching on existing riparian forest buffers and adjacent cropland. The purpose of this project is to return this river reach to a more natural function to benefit the salmonid population that will allow the riparian vegetation to be re-established and protected.
