Description - Completed
Snohomish County replaced a culvert under Soundview Dr NW, in the Warm Beach area. The pre-existing culvert was deemed a fish-passage barrier. The new box culvert is designed to meet fish passage standards. This project connects Lake Martha Creek to a small Port Susan estuary that the Tulalip Tribes restored in 2019. Stream channel restoration was also completed. The project increases fish access to upstream habitat.
