Nearly 700 sites along Tongass National Forest streams could obstruct fish from migrating, according to a new report from the U.S. Forest Service. But there is a plan to deal with the old roads and culverts causing the problems.
An old culvert built for past logging projects obstructed Logjam Creek on Prince of Wales Island.
“This project really is aimed at restoring fish passage across roads and motorized trails, which are fragmenting fish habitat across the entire forest,” Jacobson said. that have local workers restoring watersheds in the area. Hoonah is on the northeast side of Chichagof Island.“When fish are passing through a culvert, if there’s a meter perch or something on the backside, people can see that,” Johnson said.
Now, workers with Hoonah Native Forest Partnership fix culverts and bridges and reintroduce wood into watersheds that lost that natural process through logging. Johnson says healthy streams are important — especially for communities that rely on the land around them.
