McCaw Reach Fish Restoration Phase B
Byerley Fish Passage and Screening Project
June 11, 2019
McCaw Phase B improved fish habitat in a section of the Touchet River east of Waitsburg, WA. It is the third of two other completed projects in this reach of the Touchet River. It provides Mid-Columbia steelhead rearing habitat, bull trout wintering habitat, and non-listed Chinook passage and holding habitat. This project improved overall river channel complexity by increasing bar development, pool establishment, and overall stream length.
