Watershed Restoration
In-stream Habitat Restoration
The project will develop a master plan for the lowest 2.7 miles of the Atascadero Creek and upper 0.8 miles of lower Green Valley Creek. Design plans are to be prepared for the three sites that have been identified as key locations for enhancing streamflow, water quality, and off-channel habitat conditions. The designs are to be evaluated along with two additional sites with existing plans to understand the inter-relationships between the sites and the cumulative effects of implementing all five projects withing the reach. The goals are to provide numerous benefits for salmonids, enhance streamflow conditions during the dry season, and rec-connecting several perennial tributaries.
