River Restoration Projects

River Restoration Projects

The Lower Yuba River has been dramatically altered by hydraulic mining sediments, dredger mining, dams, levees, and alteration of flows. SYRCL is leading the effort to rehabilitate the lower Yuba River for salmon, steelhead, riparian habitat, and wildlife.

We have been actively working to assess the current condition (geomorphic, hydraulic, riparian, etc.) of the Lower Yuba River and are using that information to develop and implement projects that provide direct benefits to the species and habitats that are emblematic of the Lower Yuba River.
