Hiawata Creek Culvert Replacement
Completed late spring 2008 with funding from SRFB and Mason County. A crew from RV Associates replaced an undersized concrete culvert with a 20′ wide aluminum arch culvert, restoring fish passage to this formerly productive chum stream. By late November 2008, monitoring contractors hired by SRFB had documented chum passage and spawning upstream of the culvert, demonstrating immediate benefits of the project.
