East Fork Lewis Riparian Habitat
Description:
This project will acquire 52 acres of shoreline, riparian, and floodplain habitat on the East Fork Lewis River 3 miles southeast of the town of La Center. The project includes about 1,800 lineal feet of shoreline on the East Fork Lewis and 1,515 lineal feet on Dean Creek, a year-round tributary that flows through the property. The entire site lies within the 100-year floodplain. The East Fork Lewis is Clark County's largest free-flowing stream. It supports ESA-listed runs of steelhead and coho, chinook, and chum salmon. The project site is centrally located within a 2,100-acre habitat and greenway system that covers 12 miles on the lower East Fork Lewis. In addition to ESA-listed salmonids, the project site provides habitat for deer, river otter, beaver, eagles, hawks, and neotropical migrant birds.
