Title:

D: 157 - Entiat habitat restoration project monitoring

Description:

This work element covers:
- landowner, community and technical staff coordination necessary for monitoring
- project information and sharing data (results) from spawning surveys (numbers of redds) and habitat surveys quantifying physical attributes.

AMENDMENT
The agencies and stakeholders involved in restoring the Entiat River subbasin have endorsed the Entiat Intensively Monitored Watershed (IMW), an approach that calls for habitat restoration actions to be implemented in a spatially and temporally explicit manner (an Entiat IMW is required under the 2008 BiOp RPA 57.1 and seeks to determine whether a suite of instream habitat actions designed to improve habitat for listed salmonids and steelhead are effective). This approach to restoration action implementation and monitoring requires significant coordination, facilitation and support for the many agencies and stakeholders involved in restoring the Entiat River. This work element is being amended to support a technical and coordination position at the CCD that is essential to the successful implementation of the Entiat IMW. The purpose of this position is to provide technical and coordination assistance for the implementation of the Entiat IMW in support of the Entiat Watershed Planning Unit.
