Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) proposes to fund Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW) staff for implementation assistance and construction oversight on the Sixmile Creek Habitat Restoration Project, commitments would be limited to staff time associated with the 2024 implementation efforts including the placement of up to 64 Beaver Dam Analogs (BDA), 77 PALS (Post-Assisted Log Structures), and 52 small wood structures (ranging from 1 to 3 logs), fencing installation and spring development to increase habitat availability, increase floodplain inundation, reverse channel incision, and reduce flow velocity and periodicity to improve instream habitat conditions creating potential spawning and rearing habitat for Mid-Columbia steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss).
