USGS science supporting the Elwha River Restoration Project
The Elwha River Restoration Project has reconnected the water, salmon, and sediment of a pristine river and coast of the Olympic Peninsula of Washington.
After dam removal on the Elwha River, the site of a previous survey had finer grained sediment. Surveyor in the distance is James Starr of the USGS Washington Water Science Center.
