Survey UPDATE-TYK04

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

Overall Fish Passage Rating: Gray

Tidal: No
Backwatered: Yes

Step Pools: No
Construction Year:


Site Observations:

  1. Other, including vibrations, cavitation, etc.

Comments: A grate has been added to the inlet since the original survey in 2002 and the outlet perch as been removed due to beaver damming downstream. The upstream grate was clogged with horsetail.
