At river mile 0.55 (low in the 999 acre watershed/stream system) Springbrook Creek crosses under a derelict field access road and culvert on the western edge of an 8.48 acre parcel belonging to Ken Rekow. The top of a 2 ft round and 9 ft long concrete culvert is fully exposed, is a 67% fish passable structure, yet it passes 100% of stream flow. Removing this small culvert benefits fish migration and restores stream migration, and natural wood and sediment transport processes in .14 miles of stream and 3.9 acres of associated riparian habitat. The project was identified in the Springbrook Creek Watershed Assessment (SWCA) as priority restoration project #3, and is directly upstream from the Fletcher Bay Rd Project (at stream mile .20 and currently under final design and implementation) and the Barnabee Farm Stream Restoration project (downstream at stream mile .39) and will help insure conditions in critical habitat for Puget Sound Steelhead are improved. Landowner is willing and there is opportunity for community engagement and volunteer opportunities in the implementation of this project.https://srpsecure.rco.wa.gov/project/210/82209

The study will focus on options of reconfiguring the road, removing rock armor and recontouring the stream to mimic more natural stream conditions above and below the project area in order to enhance stream and riparian habitat complexity and reduce pollutant influx. The project is on the Land Trust-owned Miller Kirkman Preserve (Project 18-1471) approximately 850 feet upstream from where the creek enters Little Manzanita Bay. This project will further enhance stream conditions important for Coho, chum and cutthroat trout inhabiting the preserve's estuary and stream. Within the project area (approximately 50 feet wide x 500 feet long), the stream is constrained in a ditch within feet of the paved public Peterson Hill Rd. A rock wall and additional roadside armor were installed in 2005-2006 by the City of Bainbridge Island within the preserve as part of a culvert/fish passage improvement project. Now the hillside is eroding behind the rock wall and dislodged rock from armoring on both sides threaten to impede fish passage by blocking the stream channel.https://srpsecure.rco.wa.gov/project/210/85875

The Springbrook Fish Weir/Passage project proposes to remove fish passage barrier weirs and undersized culvert and replace the existing culvert at Springbrook Creek with a open box or bridge structure. This project was identied as the highest priority restoration project in the Springbrook Creek Watershed Assessment and is the lowest fish passage barrier is the Springbrook Creek system at .22 stream miles. Approximately 1100 feet upstream from where Springbrook Creek enters Fletcher Bay, exists the first road crossing on the Springbrook Creek mainstem. This crossing, under Fletcher Bay Road NE, is a partial barrier which includes eight concrete weirs, 70 feet of armor along both sides of the bank, and a 5 ft. wide by 100 ft. long steel culvert. Upstream of the culvert are two weirs and approximately 30 feet of armor along both banks. The downstream-most weir below the culvert is failing and water now passes through a crack in its foundation and through large rocks armoring the bank rather than spilling over the top of the weir. The City of Bainbridge Island has installed plastic sheeting and sandbags to temporarily restore fish passage function to the lowest weir. WDFW identifies this complex as 33% passable and has assigned it a Prioritization Index (PI) of 24.66 (WDFW culvert ID #15-0340); this is amongst the highest PI's of 44 PI calculations that WDFW has performed on Bainbridge Island. This crossing affects fish access to 3.6 miles of fish habitat upstream. Below the failing weir the channel is incised and scoured down to hardpan for approximately 200 ft. potentially affecting spawning habitat. The entire 999 acre Springbrook Creek watershed drains to this location.

The project site is located on Ruby Creek, a tributary to Blackjack Creek, which outlets to Sinclair Inlet. The project involves restoration and enhancement of 11.7 acres of stream and wetland habitat. Kitsap CD will replace two fish blocking culverts with bridges and abandon one culvert crossing, improving fish passage to 3.5 miles of upstream salmon spawning and rearing habitat for Chum, Coho, cutthroat trout and steelhead. .44 miles of stream will be enhanced by excavating reed canary grass from the channel, installing LWD and planting riparian plants. Reed canary grass suppression will be accomplished by excavating wetland pools and constructing planting mounds, which will allow establishment of native trees and shrubs. This project will reconnect isolated habitats, restore longitudinal connectivity at road crossings, and improve sediment and organic material supply and transport, nutrient cycling, and localized hydrology. It will also improve instream biological processes such as food chain support, sunlight, and detritus. Noxious weed removal and native planting will restore riparian processes of long-term wood recruitment, stream shading, bank and floodplain complexity, and food chain support. This action will also prevent further channel incision and improve habitat through placement of in-channel LWD. It would increase the amount of instream wood to increase hydraulic roughness and help restore channel complexity while riparian forests are developing.https://srpsecure.rco.wa.gov/project/210/82484

The Preserve, located at the northern tip of Fox Island in Pierce County, was acquired by PenMet Parks in 2013 for public marine shoreline access and habitat protection. The Preserve encompasses over 2,000 ft of marine shoreline, approximately 600 ft of which is armored. The design phase of the project received initial funding from the Pierce County Flood Control Zone District, and the sponsor has applied to the ESRP Restoration and Protection grant to move the project through preliminary design.
Removal of the bulkhead is identified as a priority nearshore project by the West Sound Lead Entity ("Strategic Identification of Areas and Projects for Nearshore Restoration throughout Key Peninsula-Gig Harbor-Islands Watershed, WRIA 15, Washington" report prepared by the South Puget Sound Salmon Enhancement Group) to support priority species including juvenile Puget Sound Chinook and forage fish. Shoreline armor removal will restore degraded sediment processes, reconnect mature shoreline vegetation, improve public access, support critical habitat for the priority species listed above, and act as a demonstration site for the Shore Friendly Pierce program. The implementation phase will incorporate significant public outreach and engagement of adjacent Fox Island landowners, and videography products to capture the implementation process. As a demonstration site, the project will offer Pierce County residents a local example of multi-benefit nearshore restoration.		https://srpsecure.rco.wa.gov/project/210/85649

Anthropogenic barriers to fish passage (culverts, weirs, dams, water control structures, etc.) prevent or impede fish from accessing spawning and rearing habitat. They often disrupt natural watershed processes including the transport of water, sediment, and wood. They typically represent infrastructure maintenance concerns that could fail catastrophically, impacting transportation and further impacting instream habitat. Responsible and effective fish passage projects require systematic inventory, assessment, and prioritization of not just public road crossing, but private roads and driveways as well. Fish passage inventories have a typical shelf-life of ten years (WDFW pers. comm.). Fill fish passage data gaps to inform passage improvement project priorities in two prioritized West Sound watersheds. Prepare conceptual designs for the highest-priority fish passage project for which landowner willingness has been documented. Objectives: Perform a systematic fish passage inventory in two prioritized watersheds to complement ongoing water typing and eDNA assessments.

This restoration project also includes removing road fill and associated shoreline armor, building a pedestrian path and upgrading associated stormwater treatment. Benefits include increased fish rearing habitats, access to upstream stream and estuarine habitats and restoring sediment transport processes.Planning & RestorationPlanned7/1/20237/1/20265,840,000Recreation and Conservation Office BA Fish Barrier Removal Board47.517-122.516ChinookShorline restorPlanned Project Forecast ListChinookYes26* Total Amount of Estuarine / Nearshore Acres TreatedCulvert modification/removalHarper Estuary is a small but significant pocket estuary with salt marsh fringe, mud flats and small freshwater streams, surrounded by lowland forests. The estuary is bisected by SE Olympiad Drive and tidal exchange is limited by a 36-inch diameter culvert. Kitsap County proposes to remove the 33% passable culvert on SE Olympiad Drive where it bisects Harper Estuary and replace it with a 120-foot bridge to allow full tidal exchange and unimpeded fish passage to ~2.0 mi of natural upstream habitat. This restoration project also includes removing road fill and associated shoreline armor, building a pedestrian pathway and upgrading associated stormwater treatment. This project will restore tidal habitat connectivity to intertidal habitats important for juvenile salmonid rearing, restore habitat processes (e.g. sediment transport), and allow unimpeded fish access to estuarine and stream habitat upstream of the barrier (2.0 miles upstream habitat).
This project will complete the final piece of a large, multi-agency restoration effort. Priority species to benefit are Chinook. For over 15 years, Kitsap County, WA Departments of Fish and Wildlife, Ecology, Natural Resources, and the Suquamish Tribe have worked together to engage the community and restore the estuary. The first phase removed historic bricks and fill, replaced a smaller barrier culvert on NE Southworth Dr. and completed the bridge analysis and design.

2024Pierce CountyPPFL 23-24-Purdy Creek at 144th The barrier is located at the head end of tidewater and is co-owned with a private business (Chevron franchisee). The project includes acquisition and demolition of a gas station that lacks stormwater controls, fill removal and potential environmental remediation and construction of a new crossing at 144th. In 2018 Pierce County completed a Restoration Feasibility Study and alternatives analysis. The preferred alternative is to construct a bridge at 144th St NW, purchase and remove the existing gas station and daylight and restore over 200 feet of stream channel. WSDOT’s SR302 crossing, a partial barrier is located at tidewater only 330 feet downstream. WSDOT’s SR16 is located 0.65 miles upstream and is also a partial barrier. WSDOT designs are complete, and they are in permitting now with construction scheduled for 2022-23 under one contract ($25 -$30 million). Modeling the SR302 replacement, WSDOT found with the larger opening, there may be a 1.5 ft. head cut (channel incision) that propagates upstream to the 144th outfall, making the partial barrier a complete barrier to salmon. The project will have immediate benefits of providing unimpeded passage of ESA listed Chinook and steelhead, fall chum, coho and coastal cutthroat to more than 7 miles of Purdy Creek and tributaries upstream. The project also solves a current and future water quality threat. The project benefits from, and leverages WSDOT’s proposed fish passage projects at SR-302 and SR-16 planned for 2022-23 construction. The project also builds off other work in the watershed including a 2011 Family Forest Fish Passage Program (FFFPP) fish passage project immediately upstream of SR-16, Pierce County fish

Both WSDOT crossings are injunction culverts and are scheduled for replacement in 2023-24 as large design/build projects. The Goodnough Drive culvert is defined as 0 percent passable by the WDFW, meaning it provides no upstream passage to fish. The upstream channel is aggraded, and the downstream channel is incised, so the culvert is perched with a 1.3-meter drop at the outfall, making fish passage impossible.
