DESCRIPTION
The Asotin County Conservation District is sponsoring the Asotin Creek PA 06 Restoration Design project to develop a full design report, ready to construct engineering plans and complete environmental compliance including permit and cultural resource requirements. The Asotin Creek PA 06 Restoration Design project is located southwest of the City of Asotin, WA along Asotin Creek Road. The project begins at RM 7.0 and ends at approximately RM 7.4. Asotin Creek is listed as a MaSA and the project is in a Priority Restoration Reach. PA 06 was identified as a Tier 1 project in the Asotin County Conceptual Restoration Plan. There is an existing stream buffer in place through the Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program (CREP). The conceptual plan for PA 06 includes promoting overbank flow, increasing flow to the existing side channel and adding large woody debris to the side channel and mainstem Asotin Creek to increase habitat complexity to enhance juvenile Snake River steelhead and Snake River spring/fall Chinook rearing habitat.
