One reach was designated based on: Valley width and Channel morphology. Riffles (26%), rapids (26%) and dammed or backwater pools (26%) dominated the habitat, while silt/organics (22%), sand (24%), and gravel (36%) were the dominant substrate types. The survey begins at the confluence with Rock Creek and ends at a split that decreases the flow. A salmon spawning survey is also set up for this same section of stream. The stream runs through a rural residence and then into timberland. There is good gravel for spawning right from the start, but the gravel begins to diminish in the second half as gradient increases. Therefore, future in-stream projects should concentrate on the lower half of this survey. REACH DESCRIPTIONS: REACH 1: Length 402 meters. The channel is constrained by terraces in a broad valley. The average valley width index is 8.5. Land use for the reach is second growth timber, with a sub dominant land use of young timber. The average unit gradient is 3.8%. The channel characteristics include: primary 420m and secondary 207m. Zero pools were greater than 1 meter deep. There was a low amount of LWD with two logs greater or equal to 12m x 0.6m, which averages to 0.5 key pieces per 100m. The vegetation is based on one riparian transect. The trees found most frequently in the riparian zone were mostly mixed sizes of deciduous ranging from 3 15 cm dbh. This survey begins in a rural residential area. The stream meanders through a terrace of Rock Creek and actually flows into Rock Creek below where the map shows it entering. The reach is characterized by silt/organics, sand, and gravel dominating the substrate. There are dam pools with light beaver activity in the survey below its crossing with Keasey Road. The culvert is a bit steep but does not appear to be a barrier and is in good shape. Above the road an old railroad trestle has collapsed into the stream. The survey ends at a 3.0m high bedrock step. The riparian shade through this section of the stream is average. There is good LWD project potential, with good access for industrial equipment. The good amount of off-channel habitat could be further enhanced with an LWD placement project. The lower half of the survey could use some riparian planting, especially near the confluence.
