Flower Pot Creek Fish Passage and Tidal Reconnection Project, OR (2023)

Flower Pot Creek is a tributary flowing directly into Tillamook Bay. The Flower Pot Creek Fish Passage and Tidal Reconnection project will improve connectivity to approximately 1.4 stream miles and 14.6 acres of tidally influenced wetland. By replacing an undersized, deteriorating culvert with a bridge and streambed simulation, the project will correct a fish passage barrier and allow for natural tidal and steam functions to occur. This culvert is highly ranked on the Salmon SuperHwy priority list and the adjacent wetlands are ranked medium-high priority in the Tidal Wetlands Prioritization for Tillamook Bay.
