Crescent Creek Culvert Feasibility Study
|
South Puget Sound Salmon Enhancement Group will complete a feasibility study to replace the culvert at Crescent Creek, a direct tributary to Puget Sound flowing approximately three miles from Crescent Lake to Gig Harbor. Crescent Creek enters Puget Sound in the northeast corner of Gig Harbor through an undersized culvert under 96th Street NW/Vernhardson Street. Crescent Creek supports fall Chinook salmon, winter steelhead, fall chum and Coho. The culvert restricts tidal flow, inhibits fish passage at some tidal elevations, and fragments the estuary. This project would complete a feasibility study to evaluate fish passage, tidal hydrology, and estuarine function to prescribe a design for a new structure to restore fish passage and tidal hydrology. This project was identified as a priority by the WRIA 15 Prioritization and Development project (06-2271) and would build upon restoration work recently complete on the other side of the Harbor on Donkey Creek.
