This watershed plays a critical role in supporting salmon populations, providing essential spawning and rearing habitats for various fish species. As part of ongoing habitat restoration efforts, Black Bear Creek is included in a comprehensive culvert survey map aimed at identifying barriers to fish passage. This survey will assess the condition of culverts and their impact on water quality and habitat connectivity within the watershed. By addressing these barriers, the project seeks to enhance fish passage, improve habitat quality, and promote the overall health of the aquatic ecosystem.</dc:description><dc:format>ArcGIS FeatureLayer</dc:format><dc:identifier>https://hub.arcgis.com/datasets/8b8a9eb2c3d94ac9b6cf19754336025d_0</dc:identifier><dc:language>eng</dc:language><dc:publisher>U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Open Data</dc:publisher><dc:rights>Public</dc:rights><dc:title>BlackBearCreekWatershed [United States]</dc:title><dc:type>Web services</dc:type><dc:coverage>United States</dc:coverage><dc:date>Last Modified: 2025-03-01</dc:date></oai_dc:dc>
