Comments

There is a new clearcut on the upstream end of this reach. The cut is for what looks like a new house. The area is secured by a not so nice dog. The valley wall has been excavated for installation of power to the site, apparently under the stream channel. A significantly undersized culvert was installed on the new driveway to the site. Erosion controls do not appear to be in place
