Decision Memo Cancelled

Burgess Creek Fish Barrier

Medicine Bow-Routt National Forests & Thunder Basin National Grassland Routt, Colorado Hahns Peak/Bears Ears Ranger District

PROJECT CANCELLED: After the NEPA was initiated we learned that there was an existing barrier downstream. Using this barrier would increase the length of stream occupied by fish more than the proposed site thereby better meeting project objectives.

Location

Approximately 1 mile southwest of Steamboat Springs, Colorado, within the Steamboat Ski area boundary.
