Biological and Engineering Approaches to Fish Passage Problems

Publication: Engineering Approaches to Ecosystem Restoration

Abstract

A combined biological and engineering approach was taken to identify and repair anadromous fish passage problems at culverted stream crossings in Clark County, Washington. Culverts were inventoried and prioritized based on biological factors. Construction cost factors were assessed and compared to the benefits of improving passage to develop a relative ranking of passage projects. Hydrologic data were developed for ungauged culvert locations and hydraulic designs were prepared using the Hydrologic Engineering Center-River Analysis System (HEC-RAS) model.
