Document Description
The subject project would complete stream channel and floodplain rehabilitation efforts in a 1.6 mile section of lower Clear Creek that has been severely degraded by gravel extraction activities. The project will improve salmonid habitat by filling old mining pits with gravel, reconstructing functional floodplains, restoring a properly sized stream channel that is in balance with future flow and sediment supply conditions, and restoring native woody riparian vegetation. Gravel and cobble necessary for rehabilitation efforts would be obtained from dredger tailings that are available within the lower Clear Creek watershed. Two borrow sites have been indentified for restoration actions and would provide a source of borrow material for rehabilitation actions at the project site. A third site provides wetland creation opportunities in an area previously degraded by mining activities. Floodplain restoration and off channel wetlands would be created, where appropriate, at each borrow site during removal of dredger tailing piles.
