Dairy - McKay Watershed Culvert Surveys

Summer 2013

Council is partnering with private landowners to perform culvert barrier assessments in the Dairy - McKay watershed. The information will help identify fish migration barriers. The data is for informational purposes only and does not require the landowner to do anything with their culvert. If the landowner is interested, the Council may be able to secure grant funding to replace undersized culverts. This will allow fish to migrate past the culvert and prevent the culvert from becoming plugged and wash out during the high flows that occur during storms.

Snorkel Surveys for Fish Abundance

Summer 2013

Bio-Surveys, LLC will be conducting snorkel surveys to determine the distribution and abundance of juvenile salmonids in Gales Creek, Upper Tualatin River, and the Dairy - McKay Creek watersheds. The surveyors snorkel every fifth pool and count the number of each salmonid species observed and quantify habitat characteristics. The data collected is for informational purposes only and does not require the landowners to change any of their land management practices. The information will help the Council prepare meaningful restoration plans when they seek grants to improve habitat on willing landowner's property.
