This project began as a partnership with a landowner to improve fish habitat and water quality by addressing flooding and erosion concerns. It is now extended to 5 more landowners and Mill City to integrate habitat and water quality improvements with land uses and stormwater management. Snake-Deford consistently has redds, therefore, has potential to supporting listed steelhead populations and possible Chinook.

Partners:
