Description

As the agency reported it.

Extensive flooding in 2013 scoured the channel and disconnected fish creek from the floodplain. The coalition will build the simulated beaver structure downstream from a similar structure built in 2018, in an area that was a historic beaver meadow. The project will mitigate flood and wildfire risk, reduce erosion, improve habitat, and increase overall ecological resilience of the watershed. The project area and need for floodplain restoration are identified as a priority in the fish creek corridor plan for resiliency. The project is supported by the town of estes park, colorado state university, the northern water conservation district, and private landowners.
