Interested applicants can bid on one or both reaches. Components of the 1.9 stream-miles of restoration in the Upper Reach includes Harvest, staging, and transport of woody material, In stream restoration taking a valley reset approach including: Redistributing ~7,500 cubic yards (cy) of sediment from Cut Zones to Fill Zones to match the target ("0") elevations identified within a Relative Elevation Model (REM) map, Subsequently placing large woody debris (LWD) across the valley bottom.
