Overview • Historically, our funding has limited us to smaller projects. All of these “low hanging fruit” type projects have now been accomplished and we need to move onto bigger projects. • WNTI has been an important source of funding for these larger native cutthroat trout restoration projects in Utah and surrounding states that share populations with Utah. • Ultimately, it is these larger projects to create metapopulations that will determine the long term success of our restoration efforts.
Projects • Weber River Watershed and Diversion Improvement • Middle Fork Sheep Creek CRCT Restoration • Chalk Creek Fish Passage • St. Charles Creek Fish Screen • East Fork Bear River Fish Screen • Georgetown Road Relocation • St. Charles Creek Habitat Restoration • Grade Creek Resconstruction • South Fork Chalk Creek Culvert Replacement • Georgetown Creek Fish Ladder • Clear Creek Barrier Design
