Small Dams and Diversions
Kelley Creek Fish Passage

Planning/Design
A nearly 6' impoundment at RM 0.5 on Kelley Creek in private ownership is a 100% salmonid passage barrier. The landowner has signed an agreement to work with JCWC to restore fish passage by removing the dam and supplying him with a small irrigation pump so he can continue to use his legal water right. OWRD is preparing the water right POD change and waiving the processing fees. A 60% engineering design was completed in November, 2018.
