Powers Creek is a prime tributary of the Mad River located near Blue Lake, in Humboldt County CA. The Powers Creek Restoration Project, led by Mad River Alliance and its local partners, will focus on the lower 3,000 feel of Powers Creek. Project plans include the excavation and removal of approximately 23,000 cubic yards of sediment, installation of boulders and logs to improve fish habitat and the riparian forest and wetland vegetation through a planting program within the newly created floodplain.
