Tassel Creek Bridge (Funded 2000)
Current Status: Closed Complete

The purpose is to replace a fish blockage (culvert) with a bridge. This will open 3.77 miles of spawning and rearing habitat for coho, steelhead, Chinook, chum, and sea-run cutthroat. This is the last human-made barrier in Tassel Creek, a tributary to the Sol Duc River. This project will complete a sequence begun by Clallam County and Pacific Coast Salmon Coalition in 1997, following recommendation of Sol Duc Watershed Analysis prescriptions and WDFW off-channel survey. This project also includes habitat enhancement with large woody debris (logs and root wads). Presently, the blocked area has prime fish habitat with good cobble and gravel, average 7° C clear waters, and an adequate riparian area. The project is listed in the Limiting Factors for WRIA 20.
