Humboldt Bay Water Control Structure Inventory

During the summer of 2006, the Arcata Fish and Wildlife Office conducted an inventory of water control structures around Humboldt Bay, California. This project was co-funded by the Humboldt Bay Harbor, Recreation, and Conservation District, California Department of Fish and Game, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The objective of this project was to develop a GIS database containing spatial data for all tidegates, culverts, and other water control structures surrounding Humboldt Bay. This information was considered important for the development of a strategic approach to estuarine restoration, and for the development of improved management strategies for operation, replacement, or modification of the structures where needed. The information was also considered critical in planning for protection of property and habitats in the event of an oil spill.
