Sandy River Delta Habitat Restoration
The 2001 annual report summarized the work from 1997 through 2001 in detail
illustrating how the Forest Service, working with its partners, was using adaptive
management to accomplish this restoration project. Subsequent Annual Reports built
upon the 2001 report; only briefly summarizing past accomplishments but detailing the
more recent work. This work was funded by the Bonneville Power Administration
(BPA), the USDA Forest Service (FS), Ducks Unlimited (DU), COE (Army Corps of
Engineers), AshCreek Forest Management, Foundations, non-profit organizations, and
many hours of volunteers.
Statement of Work
The purpose and need of this work is to satisfy a portion of the mitigation requirements of
the Pacific Northwest Electric Power Planning and Conservation Act of 1980, as
amended. This act requires that BPA fund, where appropriate, fish and wildlife actions
recommended by the Northwest Power Planning Council, that mitigate for the effects to
fish and wildlife resources associated with the construction and operation of the Federal
Columbia River Power System. The project would meet RPA 152, RPA 155 and RPA
157. The yearly project prioritization process will determine subsequent inclusion of
habitat rehabilitation actions at Sandy River Delta.
Overview: Project Description, Goal, Objectives, Tasks, and Deliverables
The goal of this project is the restoration of historic landscape components within the
1500 acre delta of the Sandy River. Sandy River Delta (SRD) was historically a wooded,
riparian wetland with components of ponds, sloughs, bottomland woodland, oak
woodland, prairie, and low and high elevation floodplain.4
