Several fish passage barrier removal projects in the Napa River watershed have recently been funded by California Department of Fish and Game’s Fisheries Restoration Grant Program for the Fiscal Year 2002-2003. The Napa County Resource Conservation District received funding for the removal of four fish barrier structures, installation of two railway flatcar bridges, construction of eight rock vortex weir structures and 120 feet of streambank stabilization and upper bank revegetation on Heath Canyon Creek. The City of St. Helena received funding for the following projects on York Creek:
- Removal of York Creek Dam and accumulated sediment behind the dam to increase access for steelhead to historical spawning and rearing habitat upstream of the dam site;
- Improvement of adult steelhead passage at the York Creek Diversion Structure; and,
- Elimination of entrainment of juvenile steelhead into a municipal diversion while maintaining diversion operability.
