Summary
These data are used to identify, locate, and prioritize correction of human-made barriers to fish passage.
Identifying and correcting fish passage barriers is a key component of salmon recovery.
The data may be used by any group interested in salmon and habitat recovery.
These data are also used to track where inventory efforts have occurred.
Description
This data includes information on the location, type, and fish passage barrier status of road-based stream crossing structures, dams, and miscellaneous instream structures in King County and basins that contain King County sites.
It includes data collected by King County as well as occasional imports of The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) datasets.
The data set is updated continually as inventory and prioritization efforts are ongoing.
