The purpose of this Watershed Assessment is to:
1. Understand the current status of water quality and stream conditions for fish habitat
2. Understand the processes that affect these conditions
3. Discover restoration opportunities in regards to water quality and fish habitat
When the Watershed Assessment uncovered restoration opportunities that...
The Tiller Region assessment has two goals:
1) To describe the past, present, and potential future conditions that affect water quality and fish habitat within the Tiller Region; and
2) To provide a research-based action plan that suggests voluntary activities to improve fish habitat and water quality within the Tiller...
Trapping migrating steelhead trout smolts was done in the spring and early summer of 1993 as part of the 1990 Umpqua National Forest Land and Resource Management Plan. Calf Creek was monitored to "validate smolt output estimates" and to "determine if changes in habitat quality are occurring." (Introduction)

This report describes the activities of the Coastal Rivers Section, including spawning ground surveys, inventory and obstruction surveys, shad and striped bass landing data, lake rearing studies, the physical and chemical characteristics of south coastal streams and various salmonid rearing and ecological studies.
"Activities included spawning ground and physical stream surveys, sampling of shad and striped bass commercial fisheries, population estimates of juvenile coho in selected streams, evaluating releases of adult and fry coho, studying coho in a lake environment, and investigations on the ecology of fall chinook in south coastal streams." (p.1)
"This information report provides an updated summary of all coastal shad tagging studies conducted by the Fish Commission. I believe these studies represent the only shad tagged in Oregon coastal streams south of the Columbia River. No new field work is reported. My intent is to tabulate, consolidate, update, and...
Aerial photography taken of waste plumes from Kraft pulp mill ocean outfalls was shown to be an effective tool in the study of waste disposal sites. This technique is not limited by sea conditions and permits monitoring and evaluation of outfall sites throughout the year. Photography taken at one instant...
