Survey MSB11-PRK16

Project Supervisor: Gillian O'Doherty, Alaska Department of Fish and Game — Anchorage, AK
Observers: Abraham Gioffre, Jim Latham

Overall Fish Passage Rating: Red

Tidal: No
Backwatered: No

Step Pools: No
Construction Year:


Site Observations:

  1. Culvert gradient red
  2. Outfall height red

Comments: Site is too brushy to survey and the pipe gradient was determined using the range finder slope function. Dwst of the site are several grade drops with the first one measured at 1.9' with the survey rod. Pipe gradient determined using the slope feature of the range finder. Could not survey due to heavy brush. **Updated site photos and fish sampling information added from 9/22/16 site visit from Sampling Unmapped Streams in the MSB project. Culvert now has a RED outfall.
