Document Description
The proposed project would place 1,200to 2,400 yds3 of suitability sized salmonid spawning gravel annually for a five-year period at five specific sites. The Mokelumne River is a tributary to the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta and supports five species of anadromous fish. Fall-run Chinook salmon and steelhead trout are the primary management focus in the river. Availability of spawning gravel in this section of the Mokelumne River has been determined to be deficient because historic gold and aggregate mining operations removed hundreds of thousands of tones of gravel annually and upstream dams have reduced gravel transport to the area.
