  • Environmental Assessment Chetco River Maintenance Dredging
    ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT CHETCO RIVER MAINTENANCE DREDGING Prepared For US Army Corps of Engineers Portland District PO Box 2946 Portland, OR 97208 Prepared By 600 University Street, Suite 610 Seattle, WA 98101 June 30, 2015 Chetco River Maintenance Dredging Environmental Assessment EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Chetco River Federal Navigation Project was authorized by the Rivers and Harbors Acts of: March 2 1945, October 27 1965, and December 4 1981; with modifications from the Water Resources Development Act (WRDA) 1992. These authorizations include the construction, operation and maintenance of two jetty formations, and other navigation-related features, and maintenance of the navigation channels through the mouth of the Chetco River. The local sponsor is the Port of Brookings- Harbor. The purpose of the Chetco River Federal Navigation Project (the “Project”) is for the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers, Portland District (Corps), to maintain the Entrance Channel and the Brookings-Harbor Commercial Boat Basin Access Channel at their federally authorized depths and widths by periodically removing channel-restricting shoals of naturally occurring sediment material. These ongoing maintenance dredging activities provide adequate channel dimensions for vessel access and use upstream to approximately river mile (RM) 0.3. By maintaining adequate navigational dimensions, the Project further serves to decrease waiting times and increase navigability for vessels crossing the entrance bar. The main Entrance Channel shoals rapidly in late winter and early spring due to coastal littoral processes. The inner portion of the Entrance Channel and the Boat Basin Access Channel periodically shoal due to a buildup of material from upstream areas and lower fluvial origins.

  • Final New River Plan 2004
    U.S. DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR Bureau of Land Management Coos Bay District Office, 1300 Airport Lane, North Bend, OR 97459 NEW RIVER AREA OF CRITICAL ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERN MANAGEMENT PLAN Updated May 2004 ii iii iv VISION STATEMENT New River is a dynamic, ever-changing system influenced by biological, climatological, geo-physical, and fluvial processes. The river and adjacent lands administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) are in a special management category known as the New River Area of Critical Environmental Concern (ACEC). The New River ACEC is managed to maintain biodiversity and quality habitats for native communities of plants, birds, animals, and fish. It also provides protection to cultural sites and affords educational, interpretive, and recreational opportunities to the visiting public in a manner consistent with the primary goals of protecting natural and cultural resources. BLM’s vision of the New River area includes protecting or enhancing habitats for a diversity of wildlife and plant species. Varied ecosystems such as meadows, forests, wetlands, coastal lakes, open sand dunes, and the New River estuary will continue to support this biodiversity. This includes a more stable meandering river with greater riparian vegetation. BLM also envision a visiting public that will appreciate and enjoy the varied ecosystems protected at New River in a way that will not degrade the naturalness of the setting or the quality of the visitor experience. BLM will manage the ACEC primarily for non-motorized public use that is compatible with the semi-primitive natural setting evident throughout most of the area. v vi TABLE OF CONTENTS Vision Statement .
