Miller River Restoration Alternatives. ..................................................... 49 iii jr 10-04766-023 restoration feasibility report-miller river INTRODUCTION In January 2011, the Miller River avulsed through the Old Cascade Highway near the left bank abutment of an existing bridge over the river approximately 2 miles west of Skykomish, Washington, just upstream from its confluence with the South Fork Skykomish River (South Fork). The avulsion was largely complete immediately following the event. Because the highway crosses what is an extraordinarily active alluvial fan and replacement of the road washout area had many complicated factors including funding the recommended solution, the decision was ultimately made to close the road indefinitely. In addition to the highway closure, King County acquired a former monastery property on the northwest edge of the alluvial fan to avoid or minimize maintenance costs associated with flood control/damage, allow natural physical river processes, and restore or enhance habitat in the area. In addition support for this study was provided in part by the Natural Resources Damages (NRD) settlement made between Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) and the Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology).King County retained Herrera Environmental Consultants (Herrera) to study the feasibility of designing and implementing a project to restore physical processes and habitat in the area, as part of the larger restoration feasibility analysis performed on the South Fork basin. The work was performed under Contract #E00201E10, Work Order E00201T. This technical memorandum presents the feasibility study. It outlines the approach, analytical methods, results, as well as the identification of specific restoration actions (project alternatives) that could be implemented to improve aquatic habitat on the Miller River fan in rural eastern King County, Washington. Study Area Limits The study area is the lowermost 2 miles of the Miller River (Figure 1), including all of the areas on its alluvial

    U.S. DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR TO ACCOMPANY MAP I-1963 U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY GEOLOGIC MAP OF THE SKYKOMISH RIVER 30- BY 60 MINUTE QUADRANGLE, WASHINGTON By R.W. Tabor, V.A. Frizzell, Jr., D.B. Booth, R.B. Waitt, J.T. Whetten, and R.E. Zartman INTRODUCTION From the eastern-most edges of suburban Seattle, the Skykomish River quadrangle stretches east across the low rolling hills and broad river valleys of the Puget Lowland, across the forested foothills of the North Cascades, and across high meadowlands to the bare rock peaks of the Cascade crest. The quadrangle straddles parts of two major river systems, the Skykomish and the Snoqualmie Rivers, which drain westward from the mountains to the lowlands (figs. 1 and 2). In the late 19th Century mineral deposits were discovered in the Monte Cristo, Silver Creek and the Index mining districts within the Skykomish River quadrangle. Soon after came the geologists: Spurr (1901) studied base- and precious- metal deposits in the Monte Cristo district and Weaver (1912a) and Smith (1915, 1916, 1917) in the Index district. General geologic mapping was begun by Oles (1956), Galster (1956), and Yeats (1958a) who mapped many of the essential features recognized today. Areas in which additional studies have been undertaken are shown on figure 3. Our work in the Skykomish River quadrangle, the northwest quadrant of the Wenatchee 1° by 2° quadrangle, began in 1975 and is part of a larger mapping project covering the Wenatchee quadrangle (fig. 1). Tabor, Frizzell, Whetten, and Booth have primary responsibility for bedrock mapping and compilation.

  • Snohomish Basin Steelhead State of the Knowledge Report (2008)
    23 January 2008 TO: Snohomish Basin Partners SUBJECT: Snohomish Basin Steelhead State of the Knowledge Report Dear Partners: With the Snohomish Basin Salmonid Recovery Technical Committee and the Co-managers (WDFW and Tulalip Tribes), Snohomish County contracted the services of R2 Resource Consulting to compile existing information on steelhead in the Snohomish Basin. This information was requested in anticipation of eventual recovery plan development across the Puget Sound Steelhead ESU. The report lays a foundation for technical analysis and planning, but it is not a plan. The Report fulfilled eight key tasks that help provide baseline information for the planning process: 1. Developed an electronic annotated bibliography documenting sources of data and information on life histories, largely at the basin level. 2. Developed a GIS geodatabase of current and historic life histories in habitats across the basin. 3. Developed a map of known spawning and rearing reaches in the basin. 4. Summarized harvest and hatchery management in cooperation with the co-managers. 5. Described available information on migration, spawning, rearing and overwintering habitats across the basin, by brood year and stock. 6. Described existing data sets and their strengths and limitations for planning. 7. Summarized the knowledge regarding genetic differentiation between hatchery and wild stocks. 8. Coordinated with the Technical Committee, Co-managers and NOAA Fisheries. Note: the information in this report was collected from all known sources. The Technical Committee and Forum will need to evaluate this information and put it into context when initiating the planning process. The report may raise technical or policy questions to the fore but is not meant as the definitive answer for steelhead management and/or recovery.

  • Times When Spawning Or Incubating Salmonids Are Least Likely to Be Within Washington State Freshwaters
    Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife TIMES WHEN SPAWNING OR INCUBATING SALMONIDS ARE LEAST LIKELY TO BE WITHIN WASHINGTON STATE FRESHWATERS June 1, 2018 Page 1 Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) biologists will use this table as a starting point when they consider timing restrictions for any hydraulic project for which they will issue a written HPA. WDFW developed this table based on the general conditions and fish life histories present within broad reaches of stream or sub- basins. Based on the site-specific conditions, circumstances, work proposed, and fish life stages present, timing restrictions for individual hydraulic project sites may differ from those upon which this table was based; therefore alternative work times may be appropriate for some projects. The table identifies times when salmonid eggs and fry are least likely to be incubating within stream gravels. In the case of some large streams, such as the Columbia and Snake Rivers, outmigration timing of smolts was also considered. Check the listing for the county in which in-water work will occur to identify times that may avoid impact to spawning and incubating fish life. Biologists will also consider such things as the expected impact of construction activities, equipment type and access, life history stages of all species of fish life present, presence or absence of spawning habitat and incubating fish at or near the project site, weather (heavy rain, snow, frozen soils), work site containment, wastewater management, best management practices proposed by the project proponent, mitigation measures volunteered or imposed upon the project, and other circumstances and conditions when permitting in-water work.

Several high priority conservation parcels were identified in the King County's South Fork Sþkomish River Basin Restoration Feasibility Report (2013). King County Parks will explore parcels with recreation opportunities in the corridor, as they do not currently own property in the watershed. The first priority targetparcels at the South Fork Sþkomish-Tye-Foss River confluence include 75.2 acres of undeveloped high quality salmon habitat at river mile 19.5 of the South Fork Skykomish River. The other priority target parcels arc26 acres along the South Fork Skykomish, just upstream from the community of Baring. A limited number of second priority parcels will be investigated as well. This proposal will fund landowner outreach and pre-acquisition work including title, timber valuation and appraisal.

  • Quarry Walls and in Roadcuts to the West
    310 LIMESTO NES OF WESTERN WASHINGTON Slickensides on the west and east contacts indicate movement between the enclosing wall rock and the limestone . Several other fau lts and shear zones are exposed in the quarry walls and in roadcuts to the west. The limestone is contained in a sequence composed predominantly of black carbonaceous shale, but including a considerable amount of ribbon chert and minor amounts of greenstone and graywacke. These rocks are be lieved to be of Permian age and have been tentatively assigned to the Trafton sequence. The limestone is cut by numerous calcite veinlets, which stand out in relief on weathered surfaces. No fossi Is were seen. Popoff (1949a, p. 6) suggested that a continuation of the limestone might lie under an increasing thickness of over­ burden in a low ridge about 40 feet wide extending 1,000 feet to the north from the quarry, as the limestone bodies in this area are more resistant than the enclosing bedrock and commonly stand up as knolls and ridges. However, shale overlies the limestone on the quarry face, and the Ii mestone appears to plunge down to the north under bedrock overburden. About 1,000 feet to the northeast is a second area of limestone outcrop. It consists of two exposures- one, near a slough of the North Fork of the Stillaguamish River, which looks very much like a buried boulder and might be limestone float; and a second, which lies about 350 feet to the northwest and 150 feet above the river. At this latter locality, poorly exposed knobs of limestone project up through soi l and drift over an area of about 500 square feet.
