Reeve Slough Salmon Habitat Reconnection Project

kʷikʷəƛ̓əm (Kwikwetlem First Nation) are proposing to restore the hydraulic connection between the Reeve Slough and the Coquitlam River by constructing new inlet and outlet channels and excavating a low gradient pilot channel through Reeve Slough to reestablish downstream flows. The Project will involve dredging and regrading the Reeve Slough, construction of a new inlet and outlet channel, installation of aquatic and riparian habitat features, and replacement of a non-functioning culvert. The Project will be designed and constructed with an in-kind partnership with Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO).

 

The proponent has applied to Environment and Climate Change Canada for a Species at Risk Act permit under section 73(3).
