Project Overview

Basics

Restoration of Aquatic Native Fish Habitat
Hidaway Creek Habitat Restoration

Planning/Design
The Hidaway Creek instream project site encompasses 17.5 acres of floodplain and stream channel habitat on private land along 1.8 miles of lower Hidaway Creek east of Ukiah, Oregon in Umatilla County. Current habitat conditions limit the presence and productivity of native species of interest including ESA listed Mid-C summer steelhead and bull trout, spring Chinook salmon, Pacific Lamprey, and mussels. The primary purpose of this effort is to increase stream channel and floodplain complexity in a reach heavily influenced by past timber harvest and cattle grazing. This will be achieved through the addition of unanchored large wood and native plantings to the stream and floodplain.
