Background

Phase IV (Upper Western Stone Reach) of the Merced River Salmon Habitat Enhancement Project (MRSHEP) is located on the Merced River from river mile 41.5 to 42, just downstream of the Highway 59 bridge.

This reach is characterized by a deep, relatively narrow section of river, most of which is virtually devoid of a floodplain and riparian communities. It is adjacent to a gravel mining operation.

Current Status

The project is currently in preliminary design stages.

Reports

Currently no published reports for this project exist on the Publications section of this website.
