    Project Description    
We propose to use SRFB funds to develop a preliminary restoration design and acquire construction permits for lower Crescent Harbor Creek, a tributary to the Crescent Harbor Salt Marsh restoration site on northern Whidbey Island. The project is intended to restore the historic floodplain alignment, reduce stream velocity to increase fish access and improve water quality, and restore native wetland hydrology in lower Crescent Harbor Creek.
Goals for the project are to:
1. Sustainably restore natural stream and floodplain processes, conditions, functions, and biological responses.
2. Restore riparian and scrub-shrub wetland habitats.
3. Restore non-natal stream channel rearing capacity and freshwater nearshore inputs for ESA-listed juvenile Chinook salmon during the early phases of their oceanward migration.
4. Restore channel spawning habitat capacity for adult coho salmon.
5. Restore estuarine and wetland habitat conditions for other native fish and wildlfe species.
6. Improve water quality conditions within lower Crescent Harbor Creek and the Crescent Harbor Salt Marsh, a 206 acre SRFB- and ESRP-funded estuary restoration site located at the mouth of Crescent Creek.
Matching funds, in the form of staff time for design review and for securing the permits necessary for project construction, will be provided by the US Navy.
