Overview

Basics

Basics
Project will complete environmental documentation to restore physical and biological processes and functions to the natural range of variability to ensure Glen Alpine Creek Watershed is resilient to a changing climate and can support life history requirements of native special status/at risk species. Funding will be utilized to complete needed field assessments and data analysis to determine the existing conditions that will be used to develop a proposed action and associated environmental review with public input. The LTBMU entered a Participating Agreement with TRCD in 2023 to complete environmental review.

  • Project will complete environmental documentation to restore habitat and aid in the recovery of Lahontan cutthroat trout by addressing actions to remove non-native trout which compete, prey upon and hybridize with Lahontan cutthroat trout - inhibiting successful recovery and self-sustaining population.
  • Project will complete environmental documentation to restore habitat and aid in the recovery of Sierra Nevada yellow-legged frog and its' designated critical habitat by addressing actions to remove non-native trout which prey upon all life stages of this federally listed species.
