The mailing will include all private property owners with at least 500 feet of natural shoreline on these priority river segments; 2) Conduct on-site follow-up contacts with interested landowners as generated by mailing and media publicity; 3) Encourage interested landowners to voluntarily enter into perpetual land protection agreements or utilize other land protection tools to protect their priority river/stream segments.

Project deliverables include: 1) Copies of color GIS maps of each of the towns with digitized parcel maps will be provided to illustrate the parcels/landowners identified within 500 + feet of existing natural shoreline frontage; 2) A generalized listing of Forest County landowner follow-up contacts by program type will be provided.

The WDNR will be provided electronic and hard copies of all data and or reports/plans generated as a result of this project.

Town Of Elcho: Restoring Aquatic Connectivity On The Hunting River: The Town of Elcho is sponsoring a project to restore aquatic connectivity to the Hunting River.

Project final deliverables include: Post construction monitoring would occur to document changes in water levels and flows after the new road crossing is installed. Success would be documented in part by comparing the water velocities, flow characteristics, and riverbed composition at the new road crossing to make sure they match the conditions in the natural river channel at a natural reference reach beyond the influence of the road. A stream and water elevation profile would also be tied to the local benchmarks to document the elimination of the impounding condition as well as culvert perch to allow for reestablishment of natural channel morphology and sediment transport. Instream water monitoring device data would also be evaluated to document any changes in upstream water temperatures.

Specific project activities include: To design a road stream crossing that will meet the deliverables above and to replace the current culverts with an adequately sized and set road crossing during the 2016 field season.

Specific conditions for this Project: The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (WDNR) will be provided electronic and hard copies of all data and or reports/plans generated as a result of this project.

Trout Unlimited-Wild River Chapter: Spencer Creek - Reconnecting Coldwater Habitat: Wild Rivers Trout Unlimited will be sponsoring a restoration project on Spencer Creek, Forest County, WI. The project will replace an undersized culvert that is restricting flow and, is creating sediment deposition upstream from the culvert and scouring downstream from the culvert. The perched culvert is also impeding fish passage. Replacement of this barrier will reconnect 5 miles of Spencer Creek to the Rat River system and 1.56 miles of Swan Creek.

Project goals: Restore the instream habitat and aquatic connectivity of Spencer Creek. Additional expected project accomplishments include: elimination of impounding conditions upstream from Flanner Road; restoration of natural stream velocities both up and downstream of the road crossing; restoration of trout and other aquatic organism movement throughout the entirety of Spencer Creek and in and out of the Rat River, allowing natural movements to complete life history stages, increase coldwater refuge areas during warm water periods in the Rat River and, increase genetic diversity among the trout population in the entire system; reconnecting 5 miles of Spencer Creek; reconnecting use of 1.56 miles of Swan Creek.

Project deliverables: A post construction report describing monitoring conducted to document changes in velocity, water depth, silt depth, substrate type, invertebrate abundance and a mark and recapture study to ensure that fish are moving through the newly installed culvert. Temp thermistors will also be deployed to document any changes in upstream water temperatures.

Specific conditions for this Project: The WDNR will be provided electronic and hard copies of all data and or reports/plans generated as a result of this project.
