On September 20, 2000, the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) received a request from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE) for Endangered Species Act (ESA) section 7 formal consultation for the Agency Creek Bank Stabilization Repair Project (Corps No. 2000-00066). The proposed action is a permanent repair to an emergency bank stabilization built in February, 2000 along Agency Creek. The project applicant, the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT), proposes to permanently stabilize the site with a combination of riprap and vegetation. The objective of this Opinion is to determine whether the action to stabilize the site at Agency Creek is likely to jeopardize the continued existence of the UW steelhead, or destroy or adversely modify critical habitat. |
