  • Environmental Conditions Appendix II
    Environmental Conditions Environmental Conditions Appendix II The unique geology, hydrology and climates of the Deschutes River Subbasin create a diverse mix of habitat conditions for fish and wildlife. These populations are linked to the ecosystems in which they live and their health, individual characteristics and abundance reflect the diversity ― and quality ― of their environments. Fish populations, for instance, developed complex life histories through time that responded to the subbasin’s considerable variation in habitat conditions. Stream flows, water temperatures, substrate characteristics and other combined attributes affected anadromous fish distribution within the subbasin and timing of migration. Wildlife population abundance and distribution also developed in response to habitat conditions. Native grasslands once covered vast areas and supported species such as sage grouse, which once occurred exclusively in this habitat. Loss of grassland habitat greatly reduced such populations. Today subbasin habitat conditions continue to influence fish and wildlife production, distribution and survival. These habitats and their attributes ― as well as the aquatic and terrestrial populations they support ― are affected by both natural watershed processes and human activities that influence flow, water quality, upland and riparian conditions and instream habitat. This chapter examines how environmental conditions in the Deschutes watershed affect the subbasin’s fish and wildlife populations. Building on the more general review provided in the Overview, the discussion characterizes the environmental conditions within three watershed areas: the Lower Deschutes watershed (below RM 100), Crooked River watershed, and Upper Deschutes watershed (above RM 100). It characterizes the natural watershed environments, such as geology, climate and hydrology, and the focal fish species they support.

Anthropology. and Geography presented on April 19. 2002. Title: Upper Deschutes River Basin Prehistory: A Preliminary Examination of Flaked Stone Tools and Debitage. The prehistory of Central Oregon is explored through the examination of six archaeological sites and two isolated finds from the Upper Deschutes River Basin. Inquiry focuses on the land use, mobility, technological organization, and raw material procurement of the aboriginal inhabitants of the area. Archaeological data presented here are augmented with ethnographic accounts to inform interpretations. Eight stone tool assemblages and three debitage assemblages are analyzed in order to characterize technological organization. Diagnostic projectile points recovered from the study sites indicate the area was seasonally utilized prior to the eruption of ancient Mt. Mazama (>6,845 BP), and continuing until the Historic period (c. 1850). While there is evidence of human occupation at the study sites dating to between >7,000- 150 B.P., the range of activities and intensity of occupation varied. Source characterization analysis indicates that eight different Central Oregon obsidian sources are represented at the sites. Results of the lithic analysis are presented in light of past environmental and social phenomena including volcanic eruptions, climate change, and human population movements. Chapter One introduces the key questions that directed the inquiry and defines the theoretical perspective used. Chapter Two describes the modem and ancient environmental context of study area.

Instead, please join us at the annual COF picnic on Thursday, August 18 at Aspen Hall in Shevlin Park, 6:30PM. Random Casts River access rights and ground water pumping continue to be a “hot button” issue in the State and Central Oregon. One proposed piece of legislation was stopped in committee that would have guaranteed a piece-meal approach to river management. There would have been different rules throughout the State, and rules could change in different reaches of a river. The conflict for river rights would have continued with a convoluted management process that could diminish access over time. The maintenance of this right is important to any river user, but we must recognize this right comes with responsibilities and demands respect for the adjacent land owners. The high water mark is only a boundary, and we must leave the banks clear of debris and trash. DO NOT venture on to other people’s property. In a quick few days, the legislature passed a law to circumvent a recent court ruling that had limited ground water pumping in the Upper Deschutes basin.

  • Section 2.5 Water Resources
    Exhibit B Section 2.5 Water Resources … Riparian Areas Riparian areas are areas adjacent to rivers, streams, lakes or ponds where there is vegetation that requires free or unbound water or conditions that are more moist than normal. Riparian areas form an interconnected system within a watershed. At the water's edge they define the transition zone between aquatic and terrestrial systems. Riparian areas often contain a diversity of vegetation not found in upland areas. Riparian areas are limited in Deschutes County and are important habitats for both fish and wildlife. The Deschutes County Comprehensive Plan, adopted in 1979 and revised, mapped riparian areas along the following rivers and streams. Table 2.5.5 - Riparian Acreage in Deschutes County Streams Riparian Acres Deschutes River 1,440 Little Deschutes River 2,920 Paulina Creek 846 Indian Ford Creek 573 Tumalo Creek 50 Whychus Creek 47 Fall River 43 Crooked River 38 TOTAL 5,966 Source: Deschutes County/City of Bend River Study 1986 Significant riparian habitat is located in one or more of the following three areas: . The area within 100 feet of the ordinary high water mark of an inventoried river or stream. The 100 foot wide area may contain both riparian vegetation and upland vegetation. Wetlands and flood plain are also frequently within 100 feet of a stream or river. In some cases the riparian vegetation may extend beyond 100 feet from the ordinary high water mark if it is a designated wetland or flood plain. The area adjacent to an inventoried river or stream and located within a flood plain mapped by the Federal Emergency Management Agency and zoned Flood Plain Combining by the County.
