Title:
F: 186 - Maintain Reconstructed Stream Channels and Instream Structures
Description:
Staff will inspect stream channels and instream structures where prior instream work was conducted by ODFW to ensure that individual structures or reconstructed channels are functional and meeting project objectives. Also, to ensure channel morphological characteristics (e.g. width, depth, sinuosity, substrate) are within the ranges of natural variability characteristic of the site, based on reference reach data, where applicable.

Staff will also ensure channel bed and bank stability fluctuates within the realm of naturally occurring dynamic equilibrium for a given stream system.

Staff will ensure mitigation sites including developed wetlands are functioning and meeting mitigation requirements.

Maintenance will be conducted on a case by case basis, but might include repair of damages resulting from failure of a critical instream structural component. Because maintenance activities would generally be in-water and would require permitting, actual in-stream work would occur the following fiscal year. Additional funding would have to be secured for instream maintenance activities. This action acknowledges that past practices and applications as well as those in the future may not function as intended and thus corrective action is necessary.

Travel to each site will occur to coincide with other program activities to minimize travel costs and time.
