Final Programmatic Report Narrative Road-Stream Crossing and Riparian Restoration in the Muskegon River Watershed (MI) #0501.16.052960 Submitted By: Muskegon River Watershed Assembly
Three road stream crossings were replaced and over 130 riparian acres reforested in the Bigelow Creek watershed, Michigan to begin a whole-system approach to restoring aquatic organism passage and stream function (Figure 1). The road-crossing improvements reconnected over seven miles of high-quality cold-water habitat and reduced sediment loading by an estimated 8.3 tons/year with upstream movement of Salmonids visually observed in 2018. More than 6,000 trees in the Bigelow Creek and Cedar Creek watersheds have been planted on more than 4,000 lineal feet of stream and river corridor to protect the waterways from solar radiation and increased temperatures while decreasing runoff through improved soil infiltration.

MiCorps Final Project Report Lower Muskegon River Watershed 2017 Stream Monitoring-Muskegon River Watershed Assembly Awarded: May 18, 2017 Project#: VSM2017 – 02
The Muskegon River Watershed Assembly was awarded a MiCorps grant in May of 2017 to implement a MiCorps program in Newaygo, Montcalm and Muskegon Counties. During the grant period, one training and three sampling events were completed. Although the number of committed volunteer monitors fluctuated during the project, a number of new volunteers were added and veteran volunteers retained. The level of excitement from the current group of monitors is high and has prompted MRWA to sustain the program even in the absence of grant funds. Also, notable partnerships have occurred that will help ensure sustainability of the program which includes financial donors and a new partnership with the Missaukee Conservation District to collaboratively host volunteer trainings.
