Lummi Nation: Lower Fobes Phase 2 Restoration Project, South Fork Nooksack River
TRI_0143
To improve temperature and habitat complexity for ESA listed salmonids in WRIA 1, Lummi Nation will use this grant to construct 29 engineered logjams (ELJs), including two channel-spanning ELJs, and plant 9.2 riparian acres in a temperature impaired reach of the mainstem South Fork (SF) Nooksack River. The goal of this project is to restore natural channel and floodplain processes to maintain salmonid spawning, rearing and holding habitat, while improving late summer flow and thermal refugia.
