Large wood installation projects
Large wood installation projects
King County rivers requires that the Department of Natural Resources and Parks keeps a list of projects where large wood will likely found in a county river or stream. This list is updated and two public meetings are held annually to share information and discuss projects. Sign up to receive notifications of project updates and public meetings above.
For each project, the project manager will develop the following information for use in the public outreach process:
- Brief project description, including approximate type and amounts of wood expected to be used;
- Location of project;
- Primary purpose of the project and its relative importance to the success of County programs and mandates;
- Project goals and objectives;
- Existing project site conditions;
- Type, intensity and seasonality of recreational uses, if known;
- Intended function of the wood, including identification of how wood meets project goals and objectives;
- Project status and timing of conceptual design input opportunities; and
- Timing of planned and completed project construction.
