RESTORATION
Access after 104 years
Project highlights include:
•
Fish and Wildlife Fisheries Restoration Grant Program , with support
from the State Coastal Conservancy and the NOAA-American Rivers
grant programs, due to the significant benefit it will provide to
imperiled species.
•
businesses for this project, including Pacific Earthscapes, Pacific
Watershed Associates and Mike Love & Associates to plan and
complete the required work. Twelve full-time, prevailing wage local
jobs will be created in the process.
•
the full support of the railroad authority, which acknowledged that
restoring service through this canyon was untenable.
The project is on track to be completed by early September this year. Be sure you are on CalTrout's mailing list to receive the most recent updates on the Woodman Creek project.
The 2017 State of the Salmonids II: Fish in Hot Water report states that 74% of CA’s native salmon, steelhead and trout species are likely to be extinct in 100 years. With major dams listed as a top human-caused threat to salmon and steelhead resilience, CalTrout is dedicated to reconnecting habitat and giving the fish access to diverse habitat by removing barriers and obsolete dams. CalTrout is currently engaged in several projects with the goal of dam removal including the Klamath Dams and Potter Valley Project in the north and Matilija Dam in the south.”
