| Short Description |
The Washington State Department of Ecology, Water Resources Program conducted an instream flow study in the Little Klickitat River basin using the Instream Flow Incremental Methodology. The study provides fish habitat versus streamflow relationships that Ecology can use in developing minimum instream flows for the Little Klickitat River basin. (Also see abstract below) | |||

| Abstract | Long Description |
The Washington State Department of Ecology, Water Resources Program conducted an instream flow study in the Little Klickitat River basin using the Instream Flow Incremental Methodology. The study provides fish habitat versus streamflow relationships that Ecology can use in developing minimum instream flows for the Little Klickitat River basin. Two study sites, involving nine transects, were chosen to represent 11 miles of the Little Klickitat River. Five other creeks: Blockhouse, Bloodgood, Bowman, Mill, and Springs Creeks, each had one study site involving four transects apiece. Habitat and streamflow measurements for the hydraulic models were collected at three or four different flows. |
