(OASIS) project is the branch of the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW) with the primary task of monitoring the status of naturally produced coastal salmonid stocks. Stock status is monitored through spawning surveys conducted throughout coastal watersheds. Spawning fish surveys are conducted in cooperation with district biologists located in four different watershed management districts. Data generated by the project are used by State and Federal fishery managers in the management of Oregon's salmon resource. These data are integral in assessing progress in the Oregon Plan for Salmon and Watersheds (Oregon Plan). PROJECT OBJECTIVES Four species of salmonid are monitored through spawning surveys. Primary objectives for each of these species are as follows: Coho Salmon • Estimate population size of natural spawners. • Evaluate straying and natural spawning by hatchery fish. • Map the spatial distribution of spawners. • Monitor Threatened and Endangered stocks. • Monitor and assess abundance trends. • Integrate EMAP assessment: spawners-habitat-juveniles. • Evaluate compliance with the ODFW Native Fish Conservation Policy. • Develop and assess fishery harvest regulations. Chinook Salmon • Develop monitoring methods that estimate spawner escapement . • Monitor and assess abundance trends. • Determine life history. • Develop and assess ocean fishery regulations for south coast stocks. • Ensure compliance with the ODFW Native Fish Conservation Policy. Chum Salmon • Monitor and assess abundance trends. • Develop and implement monitoring programs of additional coastal stocks. • Ensure compliance with the ODFW Native Fish Conservation Policy. Steelhead • Develop monitoring methods. • Monitor and assess abundance trends. • Third year of coast-wide monitoring winter-spring 2005. Additional project information is available on our web site at: http://www.orst.edu/Dept/ODFW 1 COASTAL CHINOOK RESEARCH AND MONITORING PROJECT The ODFW is continuing a multi-year study designed to develop methods that provide reliable estimates of fall chinook spawner escapements for Oregon coastal streams. Funding for this study was obtained through a U.S. Letter of Agreement and is administered by the Chinook Technical Committee (CTC) of the Pacific Salmon Commission. The CTC is responsible for evaluating the rebuilding process of naturally spawning chinook stocks covered by the Pacific Salmon Treaty and is comprised of scientists from the Northwest and Canada. This project is in direct response to requirements set forth by recent amendments to the Pacific Salmon Treaty and the adaptation of an Aggregate Abundance-based Management (AABM) scheme for mixed stock fisheries. This management strategy provides a means for sharing conservation responsibility of far-north migrating stocks originating from Oregon watersheds and subsequently intercepted in commercial fisheries off Canada and Southeast Alaska. The AABM model requires precise escapement estimates for selected “indicator” basins. These basins are assumed to represent the ocean distributions exhibited by coastal Oregon chinook salmon stocks as well as their genetic diversity. There are basically two objectives to achieve during the spawning season. The first is an accurate and precise escapement estimate in each of the indicator basins selected. The second objective is to develop an unbiased survey design that best correlates with actual spawner abundance. The goal of this project is to provide yearly escapement estimates and to identify a survey design that can be used to estimate spawner abundance for coastal streams in the future. By using indicator stocks to calibrate the survey methodology the survey-based estimates can be adjusted to yearly variations in climate, run strength, and regional effects. The Umpqua, Coquille, and Siuslaw river basins are continuing chinook assessment studies in 2004. Mark-recapture studies will be conducted to obtain an estimate of fall chinook populations in each of these river basins. Various survey methods will be used to provide an estimate of spawner abundance in the tributary and mainstem spawning habitats. These include a random survey design where data is collected on live fish as well as carcasses and carcass mark-recapture in mainstem habitat. Surveyors in these basins will follow the same survey protocol used elsewhere with the addition of recognizing and recording the existence of operculum

    Coarse Woody Debris in Streams of the Drift Creek Basin, Oregon by Curt N. Veldhuisen A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Completed February 20, 1990 Commencement June 1990 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Curt N. Veldhuisenfor the degree of Master of Science in Forest Engineeringpresented on February 27, 1990. Title: Coarse Woody Debris in Streams of the Drift Creek Basin. Oregon Abstract Approved: Robert L. Beschta This study examined the occurrence ofcoarse woody debris (i.e., pieces greater than 0.15m in diameter and 2.0 m in length) in first- through fifth-order streams located within the Drift Creek Basin of the Oregon Coast Range. Nine "tributary reachest were surveyed to determine how three land management treatments (undisturbed, patch clearcut with buffer strip, and entirely clearcut) and/or geomorphologywere associated with CWD loadings or piece characteristics. An additional 45 km of third- to fifth-order channelswere surveyed to identify CWD distribution patternsover changing stream size. All surveys recorded channel characteristics and the dimensions and attributes ofeach CWD piece. Coarse woody debris loadings varied greatly (11 to 62 pieces/lOOm, 0.3 to 4.3 m3/100m2 of inchannelvolume) between the tributary reaches, but were not significantly (p > 0.10) related to harvest treatment. However, reaches associated with clearcut treatment containedless hardwood CWD and pieces were significantly shorter, and more decayed than in the other treatments. This suggested that little CWD recruitment had occurred in the 15 to 20 years since harvest. The undisturbed and buffer strip tributaries contained CWD that reflected continued recruitment of both hardwood and conifer trees.

II INDEX GUIDE III INDEX GUIDE IV INDEX GUIDE v STREET GUIDE (QUICK REFERENCE)) . SECTION 1 STREET NAMES AND DESCRIPTION . SECTION2 MAJOR FOREST SERVICE ROADS SECTION 3 MAPS. SECTION 4 COPYRIGHT @ 2009 by LINCOLN COUNTY, a Political subdivision of the State of Oregon I PREFACE This is the fourteenth edition of the Lincoln County Street Location Index (S.L.I.). It is a numerical and alphabetical listing of all officially adopted or established street names in Lincoln County. The S.L.I. was primarily developed to assist emergency service personnel; however, it has also proven beneficial for delivery agencies and motorists in helping them find their way around Lincoln County. Some study of the Index Guides, which are located in the front of this book, is highly recommended to receive the most benefit from this book. Once you, the reader, have become familiar with the S.L.I.'s method and format of description information, the Index can become an indispensable street location tool. It has been about 2 years since the last edition; however, there are a few new streets that are listed in this Index that were never included before. In addition, a continuing audit has resulted in many revised street names and descriptions. Please report any erroneous information you may find to the Lincoln County Addressing Department. The final section of this book, as before, consists of a set of maps that are referred to in the description information for each street listed.
