CONSERVATION PARTNERSHIP WITH
U.S. FISH & WILDLIFE SERVICE
The Rock’n LB Ranch has been a partner
with U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service and Oregon
Watershed Enhancement Board in a program
along the 1.9 miles of Sprague River frontage
to improve water quality and enhance
habitat for the endangered Lost River and
Shortnose Sucker fish, as well as the
threatened Cutthroat trout. Over $250,000 in
public funds has been invested in
straightening and steepening the Sprague
River Channel through placement of wedges
in the three meander bends along the Ranch
riverfront. Placement of wedges using rocks
and logs, installation of diversion pipes,
relocation and replacement of water pumps
and plantings and re-vegetation of riparian
banks has all been completed. Additionally,
Rock’n LB Ranch has installed fencing to
keep livestock out of the river channel in
order to assist in the water and riparian
enhancement project, and has signed an
agreement allowing U.S. Fish and & Wildlife
to monitor the enhancement project until
2021. (See agreement in Supplemental
Information Package.)
