This Project Grant award from the U.S. Department of the Interior's Bureau of Reclamation under the WaterSMART (Sustain and Manage America's Resources for Tomorrow) program (CFDA 15.507) provides $489,454 to the Nez Perce Soil And Water Conservation District to improve anadromous fish habitat for federally listed steelhead trout in the Tom Beall Creek watershed, a tributary to Lapwai Creek in northern Idaho. The key activities include removing an existing box culvert that prohibits upstream fish migration and replacing it with a fish-passable structure, installing two rock weirs to control grade within the channel, and constructing a permanent bridge.
