    Project Description    
This project would build a fish passage structure at the Peshastin Irrigation District diversion structure on lower Peshastin Creek. The structure will allow access to spawning and rearing habitat for steelhead, bull trout and spring Chinook. The project would locate a roughened channel fishway at a channel slope of 3.9% upstream from the dam axis on the left abutment. Project also includes installation of fish screen at head gates. The dam would be notched for a 16ft width. From that notch the roughened channel fishway would extend upstream for approximately 87 feet. The fishway would have two training walls for the entire length. The walls would extend to elevation 1180 (same as the left abutment elevation) and be constructed of steel plate sections with rock support. The channel would be trapezoidal in cross section with 2:1 side slopes and 3ft bottom width. Boulders would be placed in the fishway invert to create a meandering flow pattern and provide shelter for fish. Two boulder weirs would be placed immediately downstream from the fishway exit to backwater flashboard weirs at the channel's upstream exit. These weirs are required to meet hydraulic drop criteria of 6 inches. The upstream exit would be controlled by 8 flashboard bays. Incidental creek channel reshaping will be required to connect the fishway invert to the existing thalweg up and downstream. The existing dam notch would be closed when the fishway is in use.
