Springbrook wetland project recognized

source:renton reporter
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has awarded an American Recovery and Reinvestment Act contract to begin design of a project to restore the upper Springbrook Creek ecosystem.

The $196,104 contract funds the design phase of the project. The upper Springbrook Creek project will restore a 900-foot stream currently running through a roadside ditch along the north side of South 55th Street in Renton. By building a new channel, the project will maximize the habitat and spawning potential for this section of stream.

The project also will include a new culvert under South 55th Street to aid in fish passage. The upper Springbrook Creek is one of the few remaining spawning areas for coho in the Green/Duwamish River watershed.
I'll have to go over there and get some before and after pictures.
