Document Description
The proposed actions would restore natural hydrological processes in the project area to benefit aquatic and terrestrial fauna and improve long term natural resource conditions in the Redwood Creek Watershed. The project includes activities such as: removal of levees to reconnect the creek with the floodplain, re-contouring the floodplain to help fish find routes back to the creek, placing large wood on the floodplain to create refugia and diversity, placement of engineered log jams in the creek to increase summer habitat for salmonids, and widening portions of the creek channel and floodplain.
