The Columbia Conservation District (CCD) used this grant to develop a conceptual restoration plan for the Touchet River and tributaries in Columbia and Walla Walla Counties. This project encompasses the upper and middle Touchet River major spawning area (MSA) and Patit Creek minor spawning are (mSA) as identified in the SE WA Salmon Recovery Plan (2011). These tributaries are inhabited by native Endangered Species Act threatened Mid-Columbia steelhead and Bull Tout and re-introduced spring Chinook Salmon. The conceptual plan was expanded by using existing information from the Touchet River Geomophic Assessment (GeoEngineers, 2011), conducted habitat surveys, identified priority stream reaches and habitat enhancement potential, and developed prioritized conceptual restoration plans. The guiding principles for this restoration plan were focused on improving the habitat factors limiting salmonid production and survival. This was accomlpished by working closely with the Snake River Salmon Recovery Board, Regional Techincal Team, co-managers, Walla Walla Conservation District, Bonneville Power Administration, landowners, and other partners through all stages of the project which ensured high priority salmonid limiting factors and restoration actions were identified. The project is identified in the Snake River Salmon Recovery Plan and regional work plan in WRIA 32 Assessment and Planning Restoration. Deliverables serve as a basis for future restoration project development in both the MSA and mSA.
