Wagon Creek Culvert Replacement (Siskiyou County, CA)
STATUS: This project to improve fish passage from Lake Siskiyou into Wagon Creek was funded under the Cantara Program and was scheduled for fall of 2003. Complications with Siskiyou County engineering requirements prevented the project from moving forward due to budget overruns as a result of these changes. StreamWise and CalTrout are working to resolve conflicts with Siskiyou County so that projects that promote concepts of natural channel form and function can be implemented.
