5 Sac Valley Accomplishments 198 projects funded in the Region for over $220 million dollars 115 projects completed with remaining 83 in progress Funding by topic area
6 Funding by Topic
7 Project Examples Battle Creek Restoration Project Lower Clear Creek Floodway Rehabilitation Project Riparian restoration planning and implementation
8 Battle Creek Restoration Project Purpose To restore approximately 42 miles of habitat in Battle Creek and an additional 6 miles of habitat in its tributaries while minimizing the loss of clean and renewable energy produced by the Battle Creek Hydroelectric Project.
9 Restoration Project Features Removal of five hydropower diversion dams Installation of screens and ladders on three hydropower diversion dams Increases in flow releases Dedication of water diversion rights for instream purposes at dam removal sites Elimination of mixing between North Fork Battle Creek and South Fork Battle Creek
10 Battle Creek, Eagle Canyon Dam and Diversion
11 Lower Clear Creek Floodway Rehabilitation Project Phase 3B Floodway restoration to address impaired geomorphic, riparian, and salmonid habitat conditions Will address a headcut threatening previous phases of restoration
12
13 Riparian Restoration Over 10,000 acres of riparian habitat protected Almost 3,000 acres of riparian habitat restored Chico Landing FEIR completed for restoration of 3 additional parcels on Refuge land (836 acres)
