Don't miss King County's annual public online meeting.  This meeting is scheduled for 3 to 5 p.m. on Nov. 6. To register, visit kingcounty.gov/LargeWood [ https://kingcounty.gov/en/dept/dnrp/nature-recreation/environment-ecology-conservation/projects/large-wood-installs ].

King County uses large wood — such as fallen trees, old stumps, root wads, and branches — in levee repairs and flood risk-reduction projects, many of which are funded by the King County Flood Control District [ https://kingcountyfloodcontrol.org/ ]. The placed wood redirects river currents, prevents erosion, and creates pools that offer protection for native salmon, enhancing their survival. It also provides food and habitat for aquatic insects.

The 12 projects being presented at the meeting are:


* Tabor-Crowall-Brodell Revetments Repair, The Rutledge Johnson, and Belmondo Levee Repair Project on the Cedar River
* Desimone Major Repair and Improvement Project, Fort Dent Levee Repair, and Auburn Narrows on the Green River
* Carey Creek, Momb Revetment Repair on Issaquah Creek
* Lower Frew Levee Setback on the Tolt River
* North Fork Snoqualmie River Confluence Revetment Removal, Dutchman Road Revetment Repair, and Stossel Right Bank Revetment Improvement Project on the Snoqualmie River

Boaters and other recreational users should always remain cautious of large wood and other potential river hazards.

The online meeting will provide an opportunity for the public — including project neighbors, environmental professionals, river safety advocates, and recreation enthusiasts — to ask questions and provide feedback directly to project managers.
