Description

The fish creek watershed is the primary source of excess sedimentation directly to chequamegon BAY. North fish creek is designated a class i trout stream by the wisconsin department of natural resources. IT has important cold-water habitat for native brook trout that is currently limited by excess sedimentation. The primary goal and purpose for this project is to reduce sediment delivery and improve aquatic and riparian habitat for native brook trout and other fish and wildlife in north fish creek. A secondary goal is to reduce sediment delivery to chequamegon BAY of lake superior. This will be accomplished by stabilizing a 480-foot terrace and 540-foot unstable bluff that will save an estimated 1,544 tons of sediment annually. The project will also protect approximately 1,700 feet (0.32 miles) of stream riparian corridor and enhance brook trout and other fish habitat by using large wood structures to add habitat complexity and roughness to a stream reach severely degraded following a flood event in 2018.
