1987-100-01Umatilla Anadromous Fish Habitat-Umatilla Tribe46159Q180Enhance Floodplain/Remove, Modify, Breach DikeEnhance floodplain connectivity and function via levee setback on Meacham Creek, river miles 6.0-7.3This WE is the floodplain component of the above instream WE The project scope of work will use a variety of instream and floodplain techniques for improving habitat conditions in Meacham Creek. This work element involves reducing the number of restrictive levees located adjacent to Meacham Creek. This effort is meant to compliment the channel reconstruction, in-stream enhancement work and woody debris floodplain placement to further improve instream and floodplain diversity. This component will accentuate other processes already in place such as the incorporation of 160 whole trees via helicopter in 2006, removal of 3 passage barriers in 2007, and the setback of 4 levees in 2009. CTUIR is strategically trying to restore increased natural function to provide natural accelerated healing of this highly altered and dysfunctional system.1566# of miles of dike removed or modified in the estuary area20110.00

YKFP is a partner in the overall project providing $150,000 towards the purchase of heavy equipment services being used in this restoration project. Lower Reecer Creek will be reconnected to the floodplain. The setback levee for lower Reecer Creek will be constructed, the existing levee will be removed, terracing and revegetation will occur. The project has already been designed with non-BPA funding; this cost-share will be used to support construction activities.1566# of miles of dike removed or modified in the estuary area20100.000.00

This site is located on private property owned by the McKenzie River Trust, with a Conservation Easement held by Bonneville Power Administration. The removal of this structure will aid in the floodplain connection at river events in the 3-8yr interval regime.1566# of miles of dike removed or modified in the estuary area20100.000.00
1992-026-01Grande Ronde Model Watershed46833D180Enhance Floodplain/Remove, Modify, Breach DikeFlooplain restoration (dispersed recreation sites and floodplain access)Five dispersed recreation sites will be obliterated within the floodplain of the Upper Grande Ronde River. Tailing berms were created adjacent to the floodplain in Phase I to discourage motorized access. Approximately 100 additional boulders will be strategically placed adjacent to the floodplain to limit motorized access to the floodplain.1566# of miles of dike removed or modified in the estuary area20100.000.00
2001-041-01Forrest Conservation Area46912F180Enhance Floodplain/Remove, Modify, Breach DikeImprove fish passage on Dead Cow projectThe Dead Cow Gulch Passage restoration project was completed in 2008 on the Middle Fork Forrest Conservation Area. After completion, one area of the new stream channel was somewhat too steep and provided some, but not complete fish passage to all life stages. Summer maintenance has been completed by hand to ensure passage for juvenile salmonids, but spring snowmelt disrupts passage repairs. This WE aims to obtain permits from USACE and Oregon DSL for minimal, but adequate maintenance to the site to enhance pool depths and reach slope to create sustainable fish passage to juvenile salmonids, fluvial adults, and adult steelhead. Additional coordination with USFWS/NOAA Fisheries regarding ESA compliance also may be required. Implementation of passage improvements will be performed by Tribal staff with the minimum tools required. The project will enhance localized features of habitat on the site. Maintenance is instream, and will only be performed during the instream period.1566# of miles of dike removed or modified in the estuary area20100.00
1992-026-01Grande Ronde Model Watershed47425I180Enhance Floodplain/Remove, Modify, Breach DikeFloodplain restoration of 16 segments & .68 miles of upper Bear CreekFloodplain restoration would occur at 16 segments adjacent to mainstem Bear Creek and .68 miles of upper Bear Creek. These segments are associated with 1.93 miles of Bear Creek. A livestock trail would continue to exist within the segments of mainstem Bear Creek, but would be removed within the floodplain of upper Bear Creek (.68 miles).1566# of miles of dike removed or modified in the estuary area20100.000.00
2007-393-00PROTECT & RESTORE NE OR & SE WA WATERSHED HABITAT47442R180Enhance Floodplain/Remove, Modify, Breach DikeRelocate 6 Dispersed Recreational SitesThis project seeks to close vehicular access to 6 sites. All of the sites are adjacent to the upper Imnaha River. This is part of an on-going effort to improve the riparian zone along this reach of river. In the early-mid 1990s, the Forest Service relocated numerous dispersed recreational sites. Two years ago, the NPT surveyed this reach to determine the effectiveness of the previous effort. As part of that field checking process it was determined that these 6 sites were still being breached. This project will move the camping area several hundred feet from the active channel. This project is cooperatively being planned and implemented by the NPT and Wallowa-Whitman National Forest.1566# of miles of dike removed or modified in the estuary area20110.00
