The guidelines are to assist the the public in minimizing public in minimizing potential impacts to important fish, wildlife and habitat potential impacts...”. resources. Developing the Guidelines - The guidelines are based on ODFW district fish “The guidelines are based biologists’ recommendations. Primary considerations were given to important fish species including anadromous and other game fish and threatened, endangered, or on ODFW district fish sensitive species (coded list of species included in the guidelines). Time periods were biologists’ established to avoid the vulnerable life stages of these fish including migration, recommendations”. spawning and rearing. The preferred work period applies to the listed streams, unlisted upstream tributaries, and associated reservoirs and lakes. Using the Guidelines - These guidelines provide the public a way of planning in-water “These guidelines provide work during periods of time that would have the least impact on important fish, wildlife, and habitat resources. ODFW will use the guidelines as a basis for the public a way of planning commenting on planning and regulatory processes. There are some circumstances where in-water work during it may be appropriate to perform in-water work outside of the preferred work period periods of time that would indicated in the guidelines. ODFW, on a project by project basis, may consider variations in climate, location, and category of work that would allow more specific have the least impact on in-water work timing recommendations.

    summer 2017 GUIDE . Discoveryour fun! movies in the park recmobile summer camps and more! TEAR-OUT SUMMER FUN GUIDE INSIDE! | NCPRD.COM DIRECTOR’S MESSAGE Summer is finally here and the sunshine and warmer weather bring endless possibilities for fun and adventure.As you start planning your summer activities and outdoor excursions, we hope you’ll use this Discovery Guide to explore the many benefits of living and playing in North Clackamas Parks and Recreation District. eW invite you to take advantage of the many programs, classes, and special events available to you and your family this season. NCPRD has something fun for all ages and interest levels, including parks and trails, summer camps, Movies in the Park, RecMobile, Big Surf! at North Clackamas Aquatic Park, and much more! At NCPRD, we believe that everyone should have access to nature, parks, and recreation programming. That’s why we’re constantly striving to better serve our community and help enrich the lives of District residents. Our strategic partnership with North Clackamas School District aims to do just that and would provide new parks and recreation opportunities throughout the District, especially where they’re needed most. As part of the agreement, NCPRD would exchange Hood View Park in Happy Valley for the Concord Elementary School and former NCSD Administration Building in Milwaukie, and appromimately $16M cash. NCSD would get the needed sports complex for their new high school at the Rock Creek campus, and NCPRD would utilize funds from the agreement to pay off debt, freeing up District operating funds. This partnership is a true win-win for the community.

Appendix; News Articles and Images 1852-Present 42 Introduction Kellogg Lake has been a central geographical feature in Milwaukie for over 160 years, but today most Milwaukie citizens, even the Lake’s immediate neighbors, have little interaction with it. Technically speaking, Kellogg Lake is a man-made “impoundment” with a surface area of about 14 acres. Originally, Kellogg Creek was dammed to power the Standard Mill in 1858 and it served as a mill pond for about three decades. According to the US Army Corps of Engineers (2002), the original stream channel has become masked deep within the lakebed by about 17,500 cubic yards of sediment that is contaminated above legal standards set by the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) for both DDT and Chlordane. It has experienced frequent sewer overflows and is the recipient of a significant amount of stormwater runoff from surrounding residential properties, Lake Rd, and McLoughlin Blvd.
