Summary Information
Fish Passability 0.5
Fish Passage is an area of concern for this site.
No, the culvert is too long and could impede fish movement. However, there is no water in the stream.
A future visit to this site is recommended. To determine if there is ever more water in the stream so that the culvert could be acting as a fish passage barrier.
