Siskiyou County Migration Barrier Removal

Siskiyou County has completed 8 Migration Barrier Removal Projects from 1998 - 2009, restoring access to over 51 miles of salmonid habitat. The County has completed these projects through funding from Office of Emergency Services, California Department of Fish and Game, Bureau of Reclamation and the Siskiyou County Department of Public Works. The County's ability to construct and design the projects "in-house" has substantially cut down on project costs. For each project, the County has employed a different method of construction and design. Click on the links below for more details.
