Last week, Interwest Construction Inc. (ICI) began excavation under the new Canyon Creek bridge and started removal of the existing culvert. Prior to the removal of the culvert, biologists from Peninsula Environmental Group performed fish capture and removal from this section of the creek, and ICI set up the pumped stream diversion around the work area. this

This week, ICI will continue excavation of the new stream channel underneath the bridge, and will begin rebuilding the streambed by placing riprap and streambed sediment and cobble.
