Description

The current culvert is undersized relative to the natural stream channel dimensions, inhibits aquatic organism passage (AOP) and disrupts natural ecological processes. Trout unlimited and partners including the USDA forest service, NOAA, little river band of ottawa indians, manistee county, and the manistee county road commission have joined an effort to replace the crossing with one that has numerous improvements including, AOP, flood resiliency and infrastructure improvement. To date, 3 other crossings in the watershed have been replaced, this is the lowest crossing in the watershed and replacing IT will fully restore connectivity. In terms of AOP, this project will reconnect 3.5 of upstream habitat to the greater watershed, species that will benefit include brook trout, mottled sculpin, brown trout, rainbow trout, coho and chinook salmon. The reconnected habitat is all high quality cold water habitat consisting of primarily gravel substrate. Replacing this structure with one that is adequately sized will also improve the flood resiliency of the crossing, reducing the need for emergency repairs or maintenance.
