Sediment Yield in Salmon Creek After Decommissioning Logging Roads, Northern Humboldt County, California
Author: Malia S.B. Gonzales
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Erosion
Languages : en
Pages : 167
Book Description
Salmon Creek watershed is located in the Headwaters Forest Reserve in northern California and is known for the ecological value of its old-growth redwood forest, high biodiversity, and sensitive habitat for endangered species. The Bureau of Land Management primarily manages the Reserve. The land-use history of the Upper Salmon Creek watershed includes extensive timber harvest and road development. Watershed restoration in the Upper Salmon Creek watershed started in 2000 with the primary goal for the Reserve to protect and recover ecologic diversity and threatened native species. Since then, of the 23 miles, 13.5 miles of logging roads and 101 stream crossings have been decommissioned and treated, with 2 miles maintained, 2.4 miles passively restored, and 5.1 miles still requiring assessment. The restoration work is focused on long term reduction in sediment delivery from erosional sites that have historically degraded water quality in the Salmon Creek watershed. A stream monitoring station is located in the Upper Salmon Creek watershed that uses a turbidity threshold sampling protocol based on turbidity, stage, and temperature. The objective is to evaluate the data collected from Water Year (WY) 2012 to 2019 to assess the sediment yield in the watershed. The field and laboratory data collected at the stream monitoring station were used to further understand the relationships between hydrology, sediment transport, and land-use, and to estimate sediment load from WY 2012 to 2019. Additionally, two precipitation-monitoring stations were installed in the Upper Salmon Creek watershed during WY 2019, to provide a more spatially representative rainfall data set.

Book Description
The Mad River discharged an average suspended-sediment load of 2,710,000 tons per year during a 13-year period beginning October 1957. Preliminary analysis of data collected during the 1971 water year indicated that about 66% of the suspended sediment was derived from sources upstream from a proposed reservoir site on the Mad River near Butler Valley. The high rate of suspended-sediment discharge and the corresponding sediment-induced turbidity of the streamflow constitute potential problems in the operation of the proposed reservoir.
