The purpose of the erosion project
is to control erosion and sediment delivery into Clear Creek and
its tributaries. Objectives include the following: Decrease sedimentation
of streams by treating the highest priority sediment sources within
the watershed on private land and benefit fish and wildlife species
by improving water quality and aquatic habitats.
The purpose of the fuels management
project is to reduce the potential for catastrophic fire in the
watershed. Objectives include the following: Treat areas of high
fire hazard; maintain habitat for fish and wildlife species, as
well as provide protection to existing habitat from the threat of
catastrophic fire ; provide protection to residents in the area
(property and life); and reduce the likelihood of severe sedimentation
which could result if a catastrophic fire were to occur.
