Description

Abstract: This document is the Williams Creek Watershed Action Plan prepared for the Williams Creek Watershed Council and funded by the Oregon Watershed Enhancement Board. The Action Plan is based on current information contained in the Williams Creek Watershed Assessment. This information has been used to evaluate site-specific and watershed-wide issues affecting salmon and other essential watershed resources. These issues include: protection/conservation, riparian health, sediment sources, fish barriers, fish screens, channel modifications, roads, low stream flows, wetland loss, non-point source nutrient pollution, and additional assessment opportunities. The Action Plan recommends how to protect, restore, and enhance conditions through the implementation of a watershed health strategy.

Purpose: The purpose of the Williams Creek Watershed Action Plan is to identify actions necessary to protect, maintain, and restore watershed resources. The Action Plan is based on the mission of the Council to assist in the holistic management of private and public lands in order to improve watershed health. Implementation of the Action Plan will be a cooperative, voluntary effort from local citizens, agencies, and organizations. The plan will provide a framework and strategy for collaboration and show ways in which interested parties can become more involved.
