Project Sponsor:

County Conservation District

Funding:
Rocky Reach Tributary Fund

Project Location:
The project site is located in the lower Entiat River.

Project Description/Purpose:
Habitat quantity and diversity in the lower Entiat River has been substantially diminished by channelization and other historic flood control projects . A geomorphic assessment of the river conducted in 1998 outlined that active instream restoration actions were appropriate for the lower river, but did not include site-specific engineering designs. This project will provide site-specific engineering design and cost estimates for 5 in-channel rock cross vanes or other appropriate structures in the lower mainstem Entiat River and lay-out stewardship plans for associated riparian plantings.
