PORTLAND, Ore. – The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is seeking public comments on the draft Environmental Assessment for ecosystem restoration at Columbia Stock Ranch.

The Corps proposes to restore hydrologic connectivity between the Columbia Stock Ranch project site and the Columbia River. This will restore structure and function of floodplain habitats, provide fish access to wetlands and off-channel habitats, and increase rearing and foraging opportunities for juvenile fish to improve survival in the lower Columbia River and estuary. 

The draft EA is available for review on the Corps’ web site at http://www.nwp.usace.army.mil/Media/Announcements.aspx. Questions or comments regarding the draft document should be directed to Joyce Casey, 503-808-4760, or Joyce.E.Casey@usace.army.mil.
