DESCRIPTION
ELR Inc is the project sponsor and the project type is a monitoring project. This request is to support ongoing monitoring in the Asotin Creek Intensively Monitored Watershed project (Asotin IMW). The project was started in 2008 and is expected to run until 2019. The funds are being requested to support i) juvenile steelhead PIT tagging and mark-recapture surveys and replace damaged PIT tag array equipment, and ii)  habitat monitoring using the Columbia Habitat Monitoring protocol (CHaMP). These two monitoring efforts are being used to assess the effectiveness of large woody debris restoration at increasing juvenile productivity in Asotin Creek. Three tributaries in Asotin Creek need to be monitored: Charley Creek, North Fork Asotin Creek, and South Fork Asotin Creek. It is critical at this stage in the Asotin IMW to maintain the basic monitoring levels to ensure that the goals of the IMW can be completed: namely to determine the effectiveness of LWD restoration methods, determine the casual mechanisms of habitat and fish responses, and to provide recommendations for implementing LWD restoration in other watersheds. The extent of fish monitoring is 12 sites 300-500 m in length, 4 in each tributary (see attached map). The extent of the habitat monitoring is 12 CHaMP sites (length 160-200 m) in Charley and North Fork Creek – Tetra Tech is funding CHaMP monitoring in South Fork Creek in 2017. This project will support the ESA listed summer steelhead recovery.
