Description
The current condition of the stream reach is uniformly shallow, sandy, and lacking trout habitat. Funds will be used to install large woody debris along 250 feet of shoreline creating pools and in-stream cover for fish of multiple life stages. This project is part of a larger effort to restore penoyer creek, which includes removal of an adjacent lower DAM and restoring a half mile of streambank through regrading and revegetation. The intended beneficiaries include the property owner (a local church), local anglers, michigan department of natural resources, and consumers energy. Consumers energy is part of the broader restoration project as part of its 404 requirements for mitigation.
