The stream meanders through a relatively wide valley and outwash terraces. The West Fork valley bottom is fairly broad with some large meadows and willow bottoms. Appendix A – Suitability Evaluation Reports A-392 The upper portion of this segment is typical of the alpine and subalpine communities of the Uinta Mountains. Krummholz spruce communities occur at higher elevations, while Engelmann spruce, subalpine fir, and lodgepole pine dominate at mid to lower elevations along this segment. Aspen communities and aspen/conifer communities also occur at lower elevations. Riparian communities typically occur as broad meadows dominated by tall and low growing willows with herbaceous undergrowth. Narrow riparian corridors with scattered tall willows growing beneath conifer overstories generally separate these meadows. This segment is more or less natural in appearance, with local dispersed recreation and livestock grazing impacts.

Constructed between 1941 and 1969, these structures function in collaboration to comprise the Willamette River Basin Reservoir System (WRBRS). The motivation for this project derives from a growing awareness of the biophysical impacts that dam structures can have on riparian habitats. This project compares each of the 13 dams being assessed, to prioritize their level of utility within the system.

  • Longley Meadows Fish Habitat Enhancement Project Heritage Resources Specialist Report
    Longley Meadows Fish Habitat Enhancement Project Heritage Resources Specialist Report Prepared By: Reed McDonald Snake River Area Office Archaeologist Bureau of Reclamation June 20, 2019 Heritage Resources Introduction This section discusses the existing conditions and effects of implementation of the Longley Meadows project on cultural resources, also known as heritage resources, which are integral facets of the human environment. The term “cultural resources” encompasses a variety of resource types, including archaeological, historic, ethnographic and traditional sites or places. These sites or places are non- renewable vestiges of our Nation’s heritage, highly valued by Tribes and the public as irreplaceable, many of which are worthy of protection and preservation. Related cultural resource reports and analyses can be found in the Longley Meadows Analysis File. Affected Environment Pre-Contact History The Longley Meadows area of potential effect (APE) for cultural resources lies within the Plateau culture area, which extends from the Cascades to the Rockies, and from the Columbia River into southern Canada (Ames et al. 1998). Most of the archaeological work in the Columbia Plateau has been conducted along the Columbia and Snake Rivers. This section discusses the broad culture history in the Southern Plateau. Much variability exists in the Plateau culture area due to the mountainous terrain and various climatic zones within it. Plateau peoples adapted to these differing ecoregions largely by practicing transhumance, whereby groups followed
