The Lostine Falls Entrapment Mitigation project is intended to reduce the mortality of bull trout and Chinook salmon at Lostine Falls. The project is proposing to move the boulders at the head of the falls that divert fish into the pocket pools.
Location
The Lostine Falls Fish Entrapment Mitigation is located upstream from the Pole Bridge recreation site, approximately eight miles south of Lostine, Oregon.
