Project 1992-026-02 - CAP Grande Ronde Model Watershed - Chesnimnus Creek Restoration
Project Number:
1992-026-02
Title:
CAP Grande Ronde Model Watershed - Chesnimnus Creek Restoration
Summary:
This request is being submitted to fund the 5.5-mile Chesnimnus Creek Restoration Project Phases 1, 2 & 3 under the Capital program for fiscal year 2027. The request is for project funding of $4,923,227. Funding is requested through the Capital program considering the nature of the large scale – contiguous project area and the flexibility relative to implementation timeframes. Project Partners include NPT, ODFW, OWEB, GRMW, USFS, TU, Wallowa Resources, USFWS, private landowners, and BPA. Based on the project scale, the Chesnimnus Creek project represents one of the most unique habitat restoration opportunities within the program service area and addresses mitigation obligations under the Power Act – NPCC, and ESA obligations for the listed Sanke River summer steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss).
