  • South Fork of Little Butte Creek Area Naming Proposals
    South Fork of Little Butte Creek Area Naming Proposals Presented by Dr. Alice G. Knotts INTRODUCTION We begin by thanking the Oregon Geographic Names Board for its careful work exhibited and accomplished in recent years for naming geographical features in the State of Oregon. We have identified some physical features in the area of the South Fork of Little Butte Creek located in Jackson County and put forth name suggestions and proposals. We believe that most of them are located on public lands of the U.S. Forest Service or the BLM, but the Knotts Cliff is on private land. 1 Naming Proposals for the South Fork of Little Butte Creek Area Identified in geographic order of approach from Medford, the road up the South Fork of Little Butte Creek and the Soda Springs trail 1009 that follows upstream Dead Indian Creek that is proposed to be named Latgawa Creek. 1. Hole-in-the-Rock Name a rock arch located on top of a hill NW of Poole Hill. Hole-in-the-Rock has been recorded on a BLM map but not with GNIS. 2. Pilgrim Cave Name a rock shelf with ancient campfire smoked walls. A shelter for travelers for thousands of years. 3. Knotts Bluff Name a cliff that defines the northern side of a canyon through which runs the S. Fork of Little Butte Creek. 4. Ross Point Name a prominent point on Knotts Cliff above the cave. 5. Latgawa Pinnacles Name a group of rocky pinnacles located near Camp Latgawa. 6. Marjorie Falls Name a water slide on Latgawa Creek upstream from the soda springs.

  • Temperatures Cool by Shading the Stream from Solar Radiation. These
    Chapter 3 Affected Environment Conde Shell temperatures cool by shading the stream from solar radiation. These trees and shrubs also contribute nutrients to the system as coarse organic material that is crucial to the macroinvertebrate communities that support fish and other aquatic organisms. Large wood has been identified as a limiting factor in Dead Indian and Conde Creek systems.5 The effects of large wood on stream form and function are positive, creating pools, trapping sediment, providing cover for fish and other aquatic species, and stabilizing banks during high flow events. Beaver have historically contributed wood in the form of beaver dams, to these systems. Beaver dams are present in the upper section of Dead Indian but absent in Conde Creek. Two dams were observed on Dead Indian Creek, below the confluence with Conde Creek.6 South Fork of Little Butte Creek and tributaries have been identified by Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) (1994) as water quality limited under Section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act. From the mouth to Beaver Dam Creek, South Fork of Little Butte Creek is water quality limited due to flow modification, habitat modification, sediment, and summer temperature. Dead Indian and Conde Creeks are limited by summer high temperatures, exceeding the maximum 7-day average for temperature (>64 F). Temperature monitors placed throughout Conde Creek and upper Dead Indian Creek during the summer of 1998 found water temperatures ranging from 65 - 77 F in late July. 7 The geology of an area plays an important role in describing fish habitat through the physical processes driving a system.

  • Little Butte Creek Watershed Assessment
    Little Butte Creek Watershed Assessment Little Butte Creek Watershed Council August 2003 Abstract The Little Butte Creek Watershed Assessment has been prepared for the Little Butte Creek Watershed Council with funding from the Oregon Watershed Enhancement Board (OWEB). The Assessment was prepared using the guidelines set forth in the Governor’s Watershed Enhancement Board’s 1999 Oregon Watershed Assessment Manual. The purpose of this document is to assess the current conditions and trends of human caused and ecologic processes within the Little Butte Creek Watershed and compare them with historic conditions. Many important ecological processes within the watershed have been degraded over the last 150 years of human activity. This Assessment details those locations and processes that are in need of restoration as well as those that are operating as a healthy system. The Assessment was conducted primarily at the 5th field watershed level, that of the entire Little Butte Creek Watershed. List and describe field watershed levels below. Where possible, the analyses was refined to the smaller 6th field watershed level, thirteen of which exist within the Little Butte Creek Watershed. The assessment also notes gaps in data and lists recommendations for future research and data collection. It is intended that this document, and the Little Butte Creek Watershed Action Plan be used as guides for future research and watershed protection and enhancement over the next decade. The document was developed using existing data. No new data was collected for this project. Where data was lacking, it was detailed for future work and study. Acknowledgements This assessment was compiled and written by Steve Mason.

  • ECR Summary.Pdf
    ISSUES AND CONCERNS AS RELATED TO EXISTING CONDITIONS Introduction The stakeholders who participated in the scoping process, through six four hour meetings, identified over 100 issues that were of concern to landowners, educators, conservationists, farmers, foresters, recreationists, and agency representatives. These issues were categorized into fourteen groups, and from these, the Watershed Advisory Committee (WAC) defined the top ten issues and concerns for the watershed. Please note that the numbers in parentheses after each issue/concern correspond to the order in which issues were raised. They are in no way intended to indicate rank or priority. These concerns were further refined for consensus on exact wording. The top ten issues are as follows: 1. Increased population over the last ten years in the canyon and surrounding areas, as well as future growth, has increased recreational pressures in the watershed without an increased infrastructure to accommodate the use. (Note: infrastructure has not kept up with the increase in population, i.e. the number of wardens.) 2. The decline of the fisheries mainly due to water diversions and lack of screening has resulted in Endangered Species Candidate listing for the spring run Chinook salmon leading to restrictions on Sport fishing and elimination of salmon and trout fishing, and could lead to further watershed-wide restrictions for multiple uses: agriculture, timber management, recreation, urban development, and property rights. 3. The current fuel load in the watershed is at an unacceptable level due to natural response and man- made interventions. 4. Inadequate timber management regulations and practices have potential impact on water quality. 5.

  • Evaluation of Spring Chinook Salmon Spawning in Big Butte Creek, 2009
    ROGUE RIVER SPRING CHINOOK SALMON CONSERVATION PLAN Evaluation of spring Chinook salmon spawning in Big Butte Creek, 2008 Rogue Watershed District Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife March 2009 Introduction A conservation plan for Rogue River spring chinook salmon, developed in cooperation with a public advisory committee, was approved by the Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission in 2007. The conservation plan lists several management strategies to bring numbers of naturally produced spring chinook back up to a desired status level that is sustainable and will support economically important fisheries. Management strategy 9.2 calls for enhancement of spring chinook (CHS) in Big Butte Creek through an increase in the amount of available spawning habitat. A small falls on lower Big Butte Creek (Crowfoot Falls, rivermile 0.6) is considered a partial barrier, limiting the upstream passage of adults, and thus limiting natural production in upstream areas. Two allied action items (Action 2.1 and 2.2) relate to this issue. Upstream passage at Crowfoot Falls might be enhanced if additional ambient flow of cool, spring-fed water can be realized during the upstream migration of adult CHS in Big Butte Creek. Determination of the amount of flow needed to enhance upstream migration would be valuable because flows during the critical migration period are significantly affected by water withdrawal from the creek. As part of conservation plan implementation, ODFW conducted enhanced surveys in 2008 on Big Butte Creek to verify current conditions and explore enhancement opportunities. To facilitate the work, ODFW Restoration and Enhancement Program (R&E) grant funding was utilized to hire two seasonal employees to complete the enhanced surveys.
