Reach DSTOUS299

Reach DSTOUS299 is located in Basin 1 and flows through a relatively undeveloped
stream corridor downstream of DSTOUS357 (see Figure 36). It may be beneficial to
combine these two projects into a single effort. Livestock have access to the stream
causing significant localized erosion and cows were noted in-stream at the time of
assessment. Fencing of the livestock out of the creek should be a part of any restoration
or enhancement effort. Notable bedrock and cobble are present. Pools are actively filling
with sand and silt. Most of the entire stream reach is severely impacted by cattle. High
BEHI with low NBS was noted. Good ripple pool sequence, very long riffles with
cobbles and boulders.
Recommendation: Restoration
Estimated Cost: $397,271
System: Major
