Sections of the report include Location, Methods, Water Quality Monitoring, Tide and Stream Flow Data, Estuary Water Levels, Estuary Cross Sections, Sand Berm Elevation Monitoring, Other Activities, Results, and Summary/Conclusion. The results indicate the fish species present (4 salmonid species, 5 other species), population estimates, and growth estimates. The appendices include: the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers permit, tables & graphs displaying data from the survey, aerial photos displaying survey points for the sand berm profiles, and photographs of the survey.
