SUMMARY:Lewis and Clark CD: Beaver Creek Restoration Project Tour
DESCRIPTION:Lewis and Clark CD: Beaver Creek Restoration Project Tour\nJune 20\, 2024 \n 05:30pm-07:00pm \nThe Beaver Creek Restoration restoration project was completed recently and the organizations involved would like to show it off! This event is limited to 20 people\, so register early if you are interested. This event is in conjunction with the Helena CORE Summer Walk Series. \nThis walk will cover the 2 phases of restoration work of Beaver Creek. Beaver Creek was listed as an impaired stream by the Montana Department of Environmental Quality for both sediment and riparian damage. The Forest Service and the Montana Department of Fish\, Wildlife and Parks had also noted declines in spawning rainbow trout over the past 20 years due to angling pressure\, predation\, whirling disease\, and continued habitat degradation.\nProject goals are to improve fish habitat and water quality\, restore floodplain connectivity to support riparian vegetation\, and create additional wetland habitat. Treatments included reconstructing the channel to former floodplain elevations to create additional stream meanders (sinuosity) since the stream was artificially straightened to support agricultural practices. Restoring the stream to historic elevations and expanding the floodplain will further support emergent and scrub-shrub wetlands. \nRegistration opens on June 6 \nEvent Information and Registration
