Shasta River Water Quality Improvement Project. Phase Four 319(h)

摘要

With the exception of Dwinnell Dam, the Shasta River has not been subjected tomajor modifications. Nevertheless, livestock grazing and other human influenced impacts have greatly affected water quality in the Shasta. Since most of the length of the river is in private ownership, improvements in water quality need to be achieved by the cumulative effects of a variety restoration projects, each tailored to individual ownerships. This report describes a variety of projects on several different properties dealing with engineered reduction of sediment from rapidly eroding streambanks, and livestock exclusion fencing. It also involves providing technical support in data acquisition for the cooperating teachers in Siskiyou Co. Schools who are participating in 319(h) projects, and help with the ongoing development of the Klamath Resources Information System.
