Survey UPDATE-1321

Project Supervisor: Gillian O'Doherty, ADFG
Observers: Mark Eisenman

Overall Fish Passage Rating: Red

Tidal:
Backwatered:

Step Pools:
Construction Year:


Site Observations:

  1. Hydraulic flows exceeded capacity
  2. Mechanical damage or joints parting
  3. Structural Problem
  4. Road Fill (pushed off road by grader)
  5. Constriction ratio red

Comments: Nelson Road has recently been widened, but the culvert was not lengthened. Outlet has been partially buried by road fill and road gravel is spilling into creek. This culvert will potentially be removed. The Trunk Road spur to the west and a gate at the eastern end of Nelson road have essentially closed the road. Culvert condition and constriction have been taken into consideration for this site and rating changed to RED.
