Kagawong River - KAG-169
The second of the three successive Kagawong River sites was KAG-169, a Medium Priority site. This site had a lack of riparian vegetation and canopy on the left bank and also a split flow (continued from KAG-160's split flow) through the side channel near the left bank. Like site KAG-160, there were numerous volunteers providing in-kind support to plant trees and shrubs along the bank of the site, an effort which was appreciated by all involved.
The second art installment of a carved, solid granite stone by Michael Belmore was also placed along this site, further from the bank, closer to the walking trail in the older growth trees. All in all a successful site!
Total accomplishments include:
•Enhanced 117 m2 of riparian habitat
•Repaired 613.5 m² aquatic in-stream fish habitat
•Planted 214 shrubs
•Planted 282 trees
•Planted 53 conifer trees from Ken Pearce (MASC)
•Installed 29 large boulders creating 1 vortex weir
•Installed 6 large boulders creating 2 boulder clusters
