The replaced crossings will provide year-round fish passage for both adult anadromous and non-anadromous juvenile salmonids, as well as Pacific and western brook lamprey. Habitat improvements will also benefit the western pond turtle, foothill yellow-legged frog, and Northern California red-legged frog.
