Benchmark levels: Undesireable Desireable More Than Less Than Goals/Benchmarks: 30% Pools Riffles present Rearing habitat Oxygen into water

Benchmark levels: Undesireable Desireable More Than Less Than Goals/Benchmarks More large wood More key pieces

Benchmark levels: Undesireable Desireable More Than Less Than Goals/Benchmarks More large wood More key pieces Slows high flows for rearing habitat Creates pools Food for juveniles

Goals/Benchmarks: Less fine sediment More gravel

Goals/Benchmarks: Less fine sediment More gravel Spawning habitat Healthy rearing habitat

Goals/Benchmarks: More vegetation on banks, over stream Vegetation Results: RIGHT SIDE: All reaches had trees and tall grasses/ferns. Most had brush/shrubs as well. One reach found bare soil/rocks. LEFT SIDE: All reaches found short grasses. Some had tall grasses/ferns, brush shrubs, and bare soil/rocks. All reaches found vegetation overhanging 50% or greater.

Goals/Benchmarks: More vegetation on banks, over stream Cooler stream temperatures Food for juveniles Potential for future wood in streams Stabilizes stream bank Vegetation Results: RIGHT SIDE: All reaches had trees and tall grasses/ferns. Most had brush/shrubs as well. One reach found bare soil/rocks. LEFT SIDE: All reaches found short grasses. Some had tall grasses/ferns, brush shrubs, and bare soil/rocks. All reaches found vegetation overhanging 50% or greater.
