Asotin County Conservation District used this funding to improve the stream channel and fish habitat on George Creek. The project constructed 5,115 feet of new stream channel that included instream structures to provide fish resting habitat and structures to prevent head cutting and stabilize the channel. The old channel was back filled and compacted for 1,730 feet. One dike was removed to restore floodplain function. The floodplain was graded in spots to regain natural contour, and rocks and mounds were placed to provide roughness to slow down high water velocities. George Creek had previously migrated to the edge of its floodplain against the county road, which artificially straightened the channel and forced the steam to incise. Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS) engineers and the Conservation District engineer designed a new meander channel away from the road with the hope of slowing stream velocities and holding water longer in this stretch of George Creek. In addition to the 5,115 feet of new channel meander construction on George Creek, there was approximately 200 feet of channel reconstruction on Pintler Creek. In-stream structures included 1 W-weir at the confluence of George and Pintler Creeks, 8 cross vanes for grade and to prevent head cutting, and 51 J-Hooks to provided bank stability and pool habitat. The 1,211 feet of floodplain roughness was constructed using large boulders and by mounding up river cobble. Following this project, riparian planting and enrollment into the CREP program took place.
