Project Before & After

BEFORE

AFTER

RDG was retained by MFWP to design and implement a bull trout habitat enhancement project.  The project included importing and installing large wood to promote pool habitat formation.  Large wood was helicoptered into the project area and either placed or staged.  A spyder excavator was used to place the large wood into stable structures.  An as-built monitoring survey was completed following project construction.
