Hill Creek Spawning Channel - 2006 Scarification Monitoring and Suspended Sediment Assessment
Download: ier_quamme_arndt_report_hillcreek_2006.pdf
During 2006 the kokanee and rainbow trout spawning gravels at the Hill Creek Spawning Channel (HCSC) were restored by the mechanical removal of fine sediments or scarification. Integrated Ecological Research prepared this report for Fish and Wildlife Compensation Program in order to document: (1) the procedures that were used to clean settling ponds and restore spawning gravel at HCSC in August 2006 (2) the effect of scarification on levels of induced turbidity; (3) changes in particle sizes and embeddedness of the Hill Creek stream bed downstream of the spawning channel; (4) the total amount of fine material removed from the spawning channel, and (5) evaluate the effect of re-suspended sediment on fish and fish habitat within the channel and Hill Creek downstream of the channel.
