These sub-projects are as follows; placement of large woody debris, construction of an infiltration basin, construction of a 63,000 gallon steel water storage tank, restoration of incised channels, and development of pond release plan infrastructure and permitting. These activities will address critically low summer flows in Mill Creek by increasing water available for instream flow during the dry season. Increases in flow will support salmonids and other riparian species. WCB Project Tracker ID 2024091.
