Description

This project considers a 2.5-mile stream reach of horse heaven creek, situated below horse heaven reservoir traveling downstream past the HWY 380 road culvert and ultimately into the mouth of the crooked river. This stream reach is nearly void of woody vegetation along the riparian corridor and the stream channel is becoming disconnected from the floodplain. Approximately 70 of the 2.5 miles of this steam reach has been historically grazed by cattle, dramatically depleting native riparian vegetation that supports both fish and wildlife, causing unnatural erosion, and unaturally accelerating stream flows. Further, water releases from the reservoir have been timed with irrigation needs between may and september, with the stream serving largely as a water transport mechanism to feed two points of diversion (pods). The goal of this project will be to reactive the floodplain by installing beaver DAM analogues (bdas) in areas that will slow the water down, collect sediment and push the water laterally onto the floodplains.
