Description

Abstract: The purpose of this project was to identify fish passage, road drainage, and road erosion hazards in the East Fork Millicoma River, near Allegany, Oregon. The Coos Watershed Association (CoosWA), funded by two grants from the Oregon Watershed Enhancement Board (OWEB), the Confederated Tribes of the Coos, Lower Umpqua and Siuslaw Indians (CTCLUSI), and Weyerhaeuser Company evaluated 793 km of the 853 km road system surrounding the East Fork Millicoma River. We used the Geomorphic Road Analysis and Inventory Package (GRAIP), designed by the U.S. Forest Service, which evaluates surface erosion, gully risk, landslide risk and stream crossing failure risks. Additionally, CoosWA surveyors recorded information on road features to develop a database to be used for long-term-road asset management.

Purpose: This document was created a tool to reduce road related sediment input in to the East Fork Millicoma River.
