An Introduction to Stage 0 Restoration with Jared Weybright

In the Pacific Northwest, US Forest Service fisheries biologists and hydrologists and their community partners from a variety of watershed councils and land trusts have begun to develop approaches to river restoration that seek to work across entire river valleys, as opposed to individual channel reaches. These projects have come to be known as Stage 0 floodplain restoration projects and seek to restore a range of natural processes needed to promote and maintain dynamic stream ecosystems. Much of this work has taken place in the McKenzie River and Middle Fork Willamette River sub-basins. Our presentation will provide a brief background on the Stage 0 restoration approach, touch on project implementation on the South Fork McKenzie River, share preliminary monitoring results and lessons learned, and conclude with a vision for a large-scale cooperative restoration approach for the McKenzie River.
