Environmental Assessment: Upper dam removal, Lost Man Creek, Redwood National Park
Redwood National Park. 1988. Environmental Assessment: Upper dam removal, Lost Man Creek, Redwood National Park. Redwood National Park
This Environmental Assessment evaluates effects of removing a man-made dam on Lost Man Creek (Redwood National Park). The dam originally provided water for operation of the Prairie Creek fish hatchery. Removal of the dam is expected to improve habitat for salmonid reproduction, and the paper examines alternatives for removal over several time periods. [The alternatives would meet listed goals with varying degrees of success, and there doesn't seem to be a clear preference expressed.] Background descriptions include hydrology, vegetation, fisheries, geology, and cultural resources. Includes a longitudinal profile and 6 black-and-white photographs at the site.
