The Forest is proposing to replace five crossings of small streams by Roads with improved crossing structures designed to enhance the passage of aquatic organisms and thus reduce fragmentation of stream habitat.
Location
Johnson Creek crossing of Forest Road 768; Grande Pierre Creek crossing of Forest Road 126 (Dutton Chapel Road); and three small stream crossings of Forest Road 345 (Snake Road).
