Title:
N: 175 - **CCR-48798--MULTNOMAH CHANNEL--60% Design
Description:
This project will be completed by the Estuary Partnership and is the continuation of the restoration project at the Multnomah Channel Marsh Natural Area (MCMNA) site and Crabapple Creek. There are two major elements of work in the project:
Part 1: MCMNA Floodplain Designs which includes developing engineering designs for the MCMNA floodplain restoration site and Part 2: Crabapple Creek Crossing Feasibility Assessment which includes evaluating the feasibility of replacing the Crabapple Creek Crossing under Highway 30 and the PNWR Railroad.
The MCMNA project area is located along the west side of the Multnomah Channel between river miles 15 and 17 and between the towns of Linnton and Scappoose. The MCMNA is a 278-acre floodplain wetland owned and managed by Metro Regional Government. Key features at the site include a levee along Multnomah Channel, north and south tidal connector channels, water control structures, and Crabapple Creek which passes through a culvert under Highway 30 and the railroad before entering the site from the west.
A Restoration Feasibility Assessment completed in 2022 identified actions to improve and restore floodplain connectivity, off-channel rearing and refugia habitat for juvenile salmonids, water quality, riparian and wetland plant communities, and hydrologic connection and multi-species passage to the Crabapple Creek watershed. The Assessment included a phased restoration approach and Phase 1 was developed into preliminary designs in early 2023. Part 1: MCMNA Floodplain Designs will incorporate all phases of the design outlined in the Restoration Feasibility Assessment including site and channel grading, physical habitat enhancements, water control structure removal/replacement and revegetation actions.
Part 2: Crabapple Creek Crossing Feasibility Assessment will include stakeholder coordination, site investigations, and evaluation of the project feasibility considering a number of different constraints and opportunities. This project is working to address limiting factors for various life history stages of salmon and steelhead and provide improved habitat for multiple species.
