| Note: | According to Matt Young, fish biologist with Colville Tribes Fish and Wildlife, “It may take many years, and the help of a beaver family, to fully restore South Fork Beaver Meadows but the positive impacts are already being seen. The new BDAs have been successful in retaining additional surface water and the incised channel has begun to return to natural levels.” | |||
