  • Explore Your Watershed Answer
    Welcome teachers! This work booklet is based on the Stormwater Partners new online tool, ‘Explore Your Watershed’, an ArcGIS StoryMap. This StoryMap was created by Eric Lambert of Clark County Public Works with a grant from the Lower Columbia Fish Recovery Board to be an immersive learning experience based on information about the ten major watersheds in Clark County. These asynchronous, self-paced worksheets can be added to your Google classroom, or printed in packets for physical distribution, and can be used in lieu of the Student Watershed Monitoring Network’s in class introductory presentation to prepare students to understand how watersheds function while setting the stage for collecting and interpreting their monitoring site’s water quality data. These worksheets can be done in the order and/or subject matter you choose. To explore this StoryMap, follow this link: https://arcg.is/iGXrq If you have any questions, contact Eric Lambert at [email protected] or Rainy Rau at [email protected] Chapter 1 – Clark County Watersheds! 1. What is a watershed? Hint: Watch the video in the ‘What is a watershed?’ section. a. An area of land that drains to a common stream, river or lake. b. A shed that holds water. c.

  • Technical Review and Analysis
    Technical Review and Analysis Date: December 21, 2020 Subject: Technical Review and Analysis of Proposed Revision to Shoreline Jurisdiction City of Vancouver Shoreline Master Program Periodic Review From: Brian Carrico, WSP USA To: Rebecca Kennedy, City of Vancouver Route To: Matt Harding, Port of Vancouver USA INTRODUCTION The City of Vancouver (City) is undertaking a periodic review of the City’s Shoreline Master Program (SMP) as required by the Washington State Shoreline Management Act (SMA).1 The purpose of periodic review is to ensure the SMP (1) stays current with changes in laws and rules, (2) remains consistent with other city plans and development regulations, and (3) is responsive to changed circumstances, new information, and improved data. For amendments proposed under (3), the City must complete a review and analysis of the changed circumstances, new information, and/or improved data to support the amendments.2 As part of their review, the City is considering a modification to the definition of “shorelands” in Section 2.1 of the SMP in order to address one of the primary issues that emerged from ongoing stakeholder coordination with the Port of Vancouver. Outside of certain shorelines along the Columbia River where the standard shoreline jurisdiction3 already applies, the proposed revision would change the jurisdiction for High and Medium Intensity shoreline environment designations (SEDs), which are intended to support some level of development, to the standard jurisdiction. The revisions would maintain shoreline jurisdiction as the full extent of the 100-year floodplain within the SEDs that are intended for conservancy. The modification is described in the following section and is intended to strike a balance between accommodating primarily 1 The Shoreline Management Act of 1971, Revised Code of Washington (RCW) Chapter 90.58, and Washington Administrative Code (WAC) Chapter 173-26, as amended.

  • 14 Lower Columbia Mainstem Subbasin – Salmon Creek
    DRAFT Lower Columbia Salmon and Steelhead Recovery and Subbasin Plan 14 Lower Columbia Mainstem Subbasin – Salmon Creek Figure 14-1. Location of the Salmon Creek Basin within the Lower Columbia River Basin. 14.1 Basin Overview The Salmon Creek Basin comprises approximately 85 square miles in Clark County. Salmon Creek is the largest tributary to the Lake River basin. The creek enters the Columbia near Vancouver, Washington. The basin is part of WRIA 28. The Salmon Creek Basin will play key role in the recovery of salmon and steelhead. The subbasin has historically supported populations of fall Chinook, winter steelhead, chum, and coho. Today, Chinook, steelhead and chum are listed as threatened under the ESA. Coho salmon are a candidate for listing. Other fish species of interest are Pacific lamprey and coastal cutthroat trout – these species are also expected to benefit from salmon protection and restoration measures. Salmon Creek salmon and steelhead are affected by a variety of in-basin and out-of basin factors including stream, Columbia River mainstem, estuary, and ocean habitat conditions; harvest; hatcheries; and ecological relationships with other species. Analysis has demonstrated that recovery cannot be achieved by addressing only one limiting factor. Recovery will require action to reduce or eliminate all manageable factors or threats. The deterioration of habitat conditions in the Columbia River mainstem, estuary, and plume affect all anadromous salmonids within the Columbia Basin. Direct harvest of listed salmon and steelhead is prohibited but sport and commercial fisheries focusing on hatchery fish and other healthy wild populations, primarily in the mainstem Columbia and ocean, incidentally affect ESA-listed Salmon Creek fish.

    CONSERVATION FUTURES: BUILDING A COMMUNITY LEGACY FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS In the effort to preserve and enhance environmentally sensitive properties as well as sites providing opportunities for passive recreation, Clark County enacted by resolution its Conservation Futures Open Space Program in 1985. This program places a 6-1/4 cent per thousand dollar assessed value property tax on all taxable properties in the county, and dedicates these funds to the acquisition of farm, forest, open space and recreation lands. A citizen-based Conservation Futures Advisory Committee reviews and prioritizes all projects submitted by the county, towns, cities and other eligible jurisdictions. Following this review, the Board of Clark County Commissioners makes a final decision on project funding. Over 3,800 acres acquired to date. Since its enactment, the Conservation Futures Open Space Program has helped acquire over 3,800 acres of high-quality shorelines, greenways, open space, and fish and wildlife habitat. Acquisitions include property on almost every major lake and river system in the county, and such notable sites as Camp Currie, Eagle Island, Frenchman’s Bar and Lucia Falls. These sites not only protect critical fish and wildlife habitat and preserve our forests and shorelands, they provide excellent opportunities for hiking, fishing, swimming, picnicking, canoeing, kayaking and wildlife viewing. Agencies and organizations that have received Conservation Futures funds include Clark County, the cities of Vancouver, Camas, Battle Ground and Washougal, and the Columbia Land Trust. In addition, Conservation Futures expenditures have helped generate over $16 million in matching grants to increase the purchasing power of the program. AN IMPRESSIVE RECORD OF SUCCESSFUL ACQUISITIONS The figures below are based on total acquisitions since 1985.
